I think SRM is a bad idea, it is against everything that PHP is not meant for. THe strength of PHP is it's huge potentional for scalability. A solution like SRM just adds a single point of failure and a bottle neck. In situations where speed actually matters this is possibly the worst architecture you can pick. However, this has all totally nothing to do with includes being slow. As a matter of fact, I find that statement as-is hugely uneducated as there is no benchmark to prove anything like this. > So why don't we truly share the knowledge... and help to find a > solution for the root problem... The root of the problem is people blabbering about stuff they have little clue about. regards, Derick -- Derick Rethans http://derickrethans.nl | http://ezcomponents.org | http://xdebug.org
