Zend Optimizer is a tool, which is required to run files protected with Zend Guard - a well-known application which is employed to encrypt PHP 4 and PHP 5 files with the purpose to protect them from tampering with the program code or reverse engineering. Zend Guard is used by many companies which make paid script applications, so when you buy such an app for your website, you'll probably need Zend Optimizer to be present on the server where you will host it. In case you are a programmer, you can also use Zend Guard to shield your code and ensure that your site visitors or clients will be unable to alter it in any way. Sites which use Zend Optimizer ordinarily perform better as their PHP code is precompiled, therefore it's already optimized and will be executed a lot quicker.
