What are some common tools used for optimizing PHP performance?
One common tool used for optimizing PHP performance is opcode caching. By caching the compiled bytecode of PHP scripts, opcode caching helps reduce the overhead of parsing and compiling scripts on each request, resulting in faster execution times. One popular opcode caching tool for PHP is OPcache, which is included in the PHP core starting from PHP 5.5.
