The core PHP developers improved the performance a lot in PHP 5.4 and later versions. You may see a speed increase of around 30% compared to PHP 5.3. Furthermore, PHP 5.5 integrates its own byte code cache so APC isn't required for this any more. If you cant use HHVM for your shop, you can still get much better results by using PHP 5.4 or 5.5.
