apc vs eaccelerator vs xcache

Im doing research on which one of these to use and I can't really find one that stands out. Eaccelerator is faster than APC, but APC is better maintained. Xcache is faster but the others have easier syntax.

Anyone have recommendations on which to use and why?

APC is going to be included in PHP 6, and I'd guess it has been chosen for good reason :)

It's fairly easy to install and certainly speeds things up.
