Zend Optimizer is a well-known piece of software, that is needed to run files encrypted with Zend Guard. The aforementioned encrypts files created in PHP 4 and PHP 5 so as to protect them from reverse engineering and not authorized use, thus guarding copyrighted source code. In case you need to protect your custom script, for example, you can use Zend Guard and your code will no longer be human readable, but you will also need Zend Optimizer on the server where you host your blog. Lots of ready-made script-driven apps, in particular ones that are paid, also require Zend Optimizer to function effectively because their core code is often not free to modify. Internet sites which use the instrument are usually faster as their code is already optimized and precompiled.
