 * Normally you can install things on a shared host, as long as it does not require
   you to have root access to the server.
    Sorry I don’t have experience with xcache
   though.

 * You can generally install xcache in your home directory and update php.ini to
   point to is, but not all hosts allow it (and you need shell access), while on
   the other hand, so hosts provide it as an option (I’m pretty sure DreamHost does,
   but you have to ask for it). That said, I’ve not done this (only APC, and not
   on a shared host).
 * If you’re worried about performance, don’t use a shared host and/or look at WordPress
   caching plugins and other [WordPress performance optimizations](http://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Optimization/WordPress_Performance).
 * Also, I’d venture to guess that this request is outside the scope of this forum…

 * If you want to reduce CPU usage on your shared server, you can use other plugins
   too.
    W3 Total cache :wordpress.org/plugins/w3-total-cache WP super cache :wordpress.
   org/plugins/wp-super-cache Above plugins are excellent and very famous. Many 
   wordpress users are using the, I suggest you to have a look at them too.

   when the normal page caching plugins didn’t work as well as I liked.
