I do have APC installed and enabled. The cache seems to be doing
reasonably well: 98.7% hits, 1.3% misses.  The cache memory looks pretty
fragmented, but I'm not seeing anything really alarming with respect to
APC's functionality.


ownCloud is still super sluggish.

Anyone have a handy comparison of APC versus xcache?
