pecl install memcache
pecl install apc

You should add "extension=memcache.so" to /etc/php5/fpm/php.ini
Use phpinfo() page to check both memcache and APC are loaded

The APC ini settings are as follows:

apc.enabled=1
apc.shm_segments=1
apc.optimization=0
apc.shm_size=32
apc.ttl=7200
apc.user_ttl=7200
apc.num_files_hint=1024
apc.mmap_file_mask=/tmp/apc.XXXXXX
apc.enable_cli=1
apc.cache_by_default=1
apc.stat=0
