Yes, Drupal is the project I'm thinking of using this for. :-)  The goal 
is the same, but I'm trying to avoid having us develop yet-more-new-APIs 
when perfectly good ones already exist that have been banged on and 
tested by more people than just Drupal.  (That particular PECL module 
also, last time I checked, had little to no practical effect on 
performance.  It was just an experiement that didn't go very far.)
