Using the APCu cache within the text class adds a significant speed boost. In testing, the load time of the text class was about 7% of the total load time on the page. After implementing caching, the load time for the text class dropped to just 0.17% of the total time for the page to load. When APCu caching is not available, the class will cache it directly dropping it from 7% to just 2.3% of the total script load time.
