Doctrine Caching - upgrading to PHP 5/6

I'm in the process of upgrading my server from PHP 5.4 to PHP 5.6. One of the performance enhancments I use is to cache Doctrine results:

$query->useResultCache('cache_key', 300);

I have Symfony configured to use APC for caching:

doctrine:
    orm:
        metadata_cache_driver: apc
        result_cache_driver: apc
        query_cache_driver: apc

In PHP 5.6, APC is removed, so I will install the APCu extension. Does the Symfony configuration need to be updated to use APCu, or will the apc cache drivers work with APCu?

The APCu interface is the same as it was with APC. That's why you do not need to adjust your configuration: https://github.com/krakjoe/apcu

Edit: the namespace has changed from apc_ to apcu_ in later versions, so in order to guarantee BC they now introduced a specific wrapper: https://pecl.php.net/package/apcu_bc
