I guess my ignorance or age (or both) is showing, I have no idea what a "text-based MUD" is. I thought we were talking some network gaming engine a la WoW and such. I still think my initial response was appropriate though - if PHP as a language is a performance concern, it's best solved by throwing more hardware at it. If that is not an option, don't use PHP. /Per Jessen, Zürich
