> Realpath function is using realpath_cache.

While this shouldn't be surprising, I agree that the documentation
of the realpath cache (and also the stat chache) could be
improved.

realpath_cache is the system that allows php to cache paths to locations of files/directories you are using to minimize expensive disk lookups.

realpath_cache is the system that allows php to cache paths to locations of files/directories you are using to minimize expensive disk lookups. It could possibly greatly improve performance of you PHP application/site if you use alot of relative file paths PHP has to parse/lookup each time you reference them.
