Re: Re: ZTS improvement idea

EXACTLY Sorry I didn't answer in full, but I've been listening to people say its not important for so long, I'm pretty tired of it by now. We are talking about merging a thing that has the ability to make some maths faster, at huge cost to the project, in two days I wrote a new extension called parallel that can make *any* code faster if you have the cores, which we all do, without complicating anything, and without cost. Just a bit of thinking necessary. I don't object to the JIT at all, but without zts it's a non starter for me. The fact that there are easy improvements that could be done for ZTS that we seem to being held to ransom for is just awful. I wish more people would really think ... https://gist.github.com/krakjoe/254897be71d23b5d5ac2d436f52e8d7d Cheers Joe On Thu, 14 Feb 2019, 16:59 Rowan Collins <rowan.collins@gmail.com wrote: > On Thu, 14 Feb 2019 at 15:47, Christoph M.
