Enable PHP extensions per domain/account?

Hi, How can I enable a PHP extension like XDebug on a single cPanel account, so it doesn't affect everyone else on the server? Right now I can only enable it globally, but then every website takes ~30 seconds to load. Any help is greatly appreciated.

  Hello @Virtus Opstrup, There isn't a supported method of enabling a PECL module on a per-account basis, but you could enable it on a specific PHP version (say PHP version 7.2), and then ensure the account you want it enabled on is the only account using that version of PHP. Or, if you are open to using CloudLinux, it offers this feature as part of PHP Selector: CloudLinux Documentation Thank you.

  The server is currently running CentOS 7, would I be able to CloudLinux on this server?

  
  Hello, Yes, you should be able to convert that server to CloudLinux:
