This plugin implements a driver for the object cache system used by many content management systems. It is designed for developers and site administrators who need to improve site performance by reducing database load. By storing cached objects in PHP's OPcache memory, it aims to deliver faster response times compared to traditional caching backends.

OPcache Integration: Directly uses the PHP OPcache extension as the storage backend, which is typically already enabled on many hosting environments.

Performance Focus: Aims to reduce latency by avoiding the serialization and deserialization of PHP objects that is required by other caching systems like Redis or Memcached.

Drop-in Installation: The driver is installed as a single file in the site's content directory, not as a standard plugin, requiring minimal configuration.

Graceful Degradation: If OPcache is unavailable or runs out of memory, the driver will fall back to reading from cached files on disk, maintaining functionality without the memory speed boost.

Configuration Dependent: Optimal performance requires proper server-side configuration of the OPcache extension, including sufficient allocated memory.
