class PhpBackend
Defines a PHP cache implementation.
Stores cache items in a PHP file using a storage that implements Drupal\Component\PhpStorage\PhpStorageInterface.
This is fast because of PHP's opcode caching mechanism. Once a file's content is stored in PHP's opcode cache, including it doesn't require reading the contents from a filesystem. Instead, PHP will use the already compiled opcodes stored in memory.
