Well, it's also results in shorter code (there were plenty of functions that used both ELS, CLS, PLS and SLS, so their prototypes looked like ... ELS_DC CLS_DC PLS_DC SLS_DC, which was a mess). It's performance and cleanliness.

And a note for others: You don't need TSRML* in every function, but you do need it if you use: - Global variables, like BG(...) & co.

Note that most of the callbacks in the engine and in PHP now accept TSRMLS, so you don't need to fetch it (including internal functions, start/shutdown/activation/deactivation, etc.) Zeev
