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.
Cheers,
Rob.
