Hello
have you guys heard of cache_backport?
would be interesting to add a port, if that port does not needs too many changes.

I'll have a look how much effort it will take. If it's not too much I'll roll a d6 version.

Yes, I developed the Cache Backport module using APC backend as test case, it should definitely work great with it :) You don't need any port, I will report bugs as soon as I find them (already did once if I remember well).

Thank you guys for this APC backend!

Should I commit anything for easier access to the APC backend with cache_backport?

Right now, I don't think so, except maybe an effort for documentation. Still, we are doing it in Cache Backport so that's not necessary.

EDIT: If I find out any bugs or anything that could help, I will open issues.

Would you mind providing me some documentation (or link) I can publish in the README / project page?

Right now I don't have much to share, a colleague of mine is actually writing it, let me ask him the next time I see him how he's doing with that.

Sounds like a good idea - but did you know there is already CacheRouter?

Refer #12

Cacherouter is not [yet] using the later features of APC.
APC - Alternative PHP Cache is currently using some advanced APC features,
such as allowing APC to perform cache serialization() and locking.
This has bench tested (by me) to be nice performance +asset!
Cacherouter is not getting the love it needs...

I am using cache_backport with Pressflow 6.22 + APC - Alternative PHP Cache
Works great!
There are some good [advanced] APC features in the method used by 'APC - Alternative PHP Cache' module.
(compared to say the older Cacherouter).

    Low latency
    Better locking (native to APC)
    Access to the new APCIterator class for iterating over set of keys; see http://drupal.org/node/1278292
    No need to serialize/unserialize items

@all For your information I just pushed a new release of Cache Backport, two modifications: added a null backend implementation, and also fixed the sad headers bug. Need testers, and since you all here seems interested, please give me some feedback :)
