Hello,
this is my first contribution for phpFreeChat.
I wrote a nice shared memory container class. It should speed up the storage process such that more people can chat without higher load for the server.
My container class uses the PEAR class "System/SharedMemory" to store the data. This pear class is able to store into the following structures: ApacheNote, APC, eAccelerator, File, Memcached, Sharedance, SHMOP, SQLite, System V and Turck MMCache. I think this makes it possible to also work on Windows hosts.
I tested and developed my container class with 0.8 pre (SVN revision 309) but it should also work with 0.7.
You can download it from: http://h0t.de/pfc/Memory-Container.tar.gz
