Show HN: nocopy – An APCu-compatible PHP extension with zero-copy reads
I built nocopy to show how much performance we leave on the table in current PHP applications. APCu copies each value into the request on every read, and nocopy hands over the shared value itself. It is thoroughly tested and benchmarked, but currently completely lacks production use. Disclosure: Opus wrote all the code. I drove the direction.

Review priority 40 / 100
This score orders research candidates. It is not search volume, a forecast or verified commercial demand.
Evidence
8 / 30Distinct dated articles or first observations; repeat crawling adds nothing.
Publisher diversity
8 / 25Conservative owner grouping; syndicated copies count once.
Comparable change
0 / 20Comparable complete weeks only; no percentage from a zero baseline.
Recent evidence
14.4 / 15Latest publication or first observation, not repeated fetch time.
Name specificity
10 / 10Explicit entities and technical concepts outrank ambiguous acronyms.
Limitations and interpretation
- First observation is a collection milestone, not proof that a word or product is new to the world.
- Counts describe monitored public sources, not the whole web or search demand.
- First observed here is not the invention date of a name or idea.
- Candidates come from public titles, summaries and entity URLs, not verified full-text analysis.
- Owner grouping is conservative; undisclosed syndication may remain.
- Sources behind this term changed or lack a comparable baseline.
- The previous week is too small for a reliable percentage change.
- Current evidence comes from one publisher or owner.
