A little Googling turned up this:

Looks like it does require APC and JSON, so it probably can't be a feature 
that has to work for the system to function, but it is still a very nice 
add-on for users who have APC enabled.  (And if you're running a dedicated 
box, then you really should have APC on it.)

"If nature has made any one thing less susceptible than all others of 
exclusive property, it is the action of the thinking power called an idea, 
which an individual may exclusively possess as long as he keeps it to 
himself; but the moment it is divulged, it forces itself into the possession 
of every one, and the receiver cannot dispossess himself of it."  -- Thomas
