I think people are saying APC is dead because another opcode cache was included in PHP 5.5 and APC has not seen a release since 2012.

There is still a need for a ucache (in addition to built in opcode cache)... although a lot of high traffic WP sites are turning to redis over memcache for this.

Ah gotcha. The ol' "it's old so it must be dead" way of thinking. That makes sense. Thanks.
