I currently updated/upgraded my php to 5.5.11 and want to use the opcache that comes with it.
I enabled the cache and added a few settings to php.ini

zend_extension=/usr/lib/php5/20131313/opcache.so
opcache.memory_consumption=128
opcache.interned_strings_buffer=8
opcache.max_accelerated_files=4000
opcache.revalidate_freq=60
opcache.fast_shutdown=1
opcache.enable_cli=1

But is this enough? Can i use wordpress caching plugins or there is no need?
I used W3 total cache together with apc until now.
Which wordpress caching plugin should i use now? Any other settings of opcache i should change?

  • With "zend_extension=/usr/lib/php5/20131313/opcache.so" in the php.ini the opcache was disabled. Now i'm using it together with WP Fastest Cache and site loads very fast.

Opcache is transparent for WordPress (as it is to any PHP application).

However if you had been using APC for object cache (key/value store) via plugin — that function is not available in new bundled Zend cache, it only does opcode caching.

You would need to replace object cache with something different (APCu/Memcache/Redis/etc).
