I was just talking myself. I use objects and such so I'm really not as worried about performance either. But it was a "downside" that I knew about from some css/js stuff I'd done a while ago. I still had 2 files on my box from some framework stuff I'd been messing with. Here were some results from my local testing (from the Yii framework). -- index.html -- $ cat index.html hello world $ ab -t 30 -c 50 http://localhost/benchmarks/baseline/index.html Requests per second: 631.07 [#/sec] (mean) Time per request: 79.23 [ms] (mean) Time per request: 1.58 [ms] (mean, across all concurrent requests) -- index.php -- $ cat index.php <?php echo "hello world" ?> $ ab -t 30 -c 50 http://localhost/benchmarks/baseline/index.php Requests per second: 358.21 [#/sec] (mean) Time per request: 139.58 [ms] (mean) Time per request: 2.79 [ms] (mean, across all concurrent requests)
