Speed up websites by 200-500% with OpCache!

The resource requirements of modern PHP-based websites and frameworks are increasing. The best way to speed up website loading is to use the so-called OpCache. When a web page is first loaded, OpCache compiles the PHP code into machine code that the server can run faster and stores in memory. On reload, it will run this machine code instead of running PHP, speeding up the loading of the web page by 200-500%.

OpCache is free and recommended, so we enabled it. Using it on websites that adhere to standards and standard programming paradigms will not cause any incompatibilities, but in individual cases, some functions of the website may not work. In these cases, OpCache must be disabled under Web hosting settings / PHP Settings. OpCache is available in all PHP versions.

For OpCache to work, 16 Mbyte of memory is allocated on each storage and the translated bytecode is stored in memory for 2 minutes. For websites with high traffic or critical access times, we offer our OpCache PRO service, which provides 64 Mb of memory and 5 minutes of storage to accelerate websites. The price of OpCache PRO is 10 000 HUF + VAT / year, you can order the activation from our Customer Service!
