yes, i have discovered recently that php is not as fast as it is hyped to be. don't get me wrong. php is fast, but it depends on how you arrange your scripts. if you include a lot of library code (PEAR, etc etc), the overhead would increase and increase. i thought php has always cached compiled scripts (since it is fast enough for me so far), but the fact is it does not. without cacher like apc or zend cache, mod_php is no better than cgi, except it avoids per-request forking and configuration parsing. why oh why doesn't php/plain zend cache scripts in the first place? :-/ Regards, Steve On 20/05/2001 20:53, Christopher Leigh wrote:
