You can cache the precompiled code with (for example) APC. Unless your code is several thousand lines of code (or your server very slow... 486-slow), the compilation phase is not that long. I think your main problem can be one of: 1- wrong algorithm 2- long waits (database, files, network, etc.) 3- heavy calculations Solutions: 1- find and use a different algorithm 2- Try to parallelize code (with gearman or similar, or via pctnl_fork) 3- rewrite the heavy functions in C, C++ or Go and compile them, then call them via PHP extensions or via gearman/fork.
