Thanks for the input. I read quite a few of those, it seems Zend remains somthing of an enigma. I really don't want to install it on my server if I can help it. I had loads of problems with it on another server and they (thankfully) offered a lot of support (costly however). Now I'm on a Godaddy private dedicated server and if problems arise, I'll be s@#* out of luck as Godaddy is useless. I think calling it an "optimizer" is cleaver bit of propganda, much better than its working title: the Zend ProblemCauser.
