I mostly don't keep up with the bulk of the PHP threads; however, I did a pretty thorough scan of them to find information about re-entrancy and didn't find anything to answer my question. So here goes... I was wondering if there were any plans to make php_mod re-entrant in any way or if there were any comments on how difficult this task would be. I see the advantages of re-entrancy being that my source code wouldn't need to be reloaded every single time a page is loaded; much of the data would already be in memory with respect to properties and caching; I could have a global persistent cache for some of my data versus saving to a database or shared memory location for subsequent page hit retrieval. Mostly I just don't want my source code re-parsed and loaded on every hit since that is a large overhead once you get into several layers of abstraction.
