I don't like to increase complexity of ext/soap with additional options. It is already complex enough and simple object <-> array conversion doesn't provide additional abilities.

Well we have way more functions to "play" with arrays than we have with objects. Considering that we can have arbitrarily complex structures returned from a soap request, its also not a trivial cast. Even if its just a cast, its will cost performance.

I don't understand how ext/soap related to APC.

Well the problem is that I am trying to cache soap replies in APC. This seems to be buggy but at the very least will require a serialize/unserialize call, which again adds overhead. So obviously its not directly related, though I am sure that a lot of people will try to cache their soap replies in some way or another. regards, Lukas
