Hi!
Work has been done on rewriting the PHP parser to Lemon in a specific
branch: http://svn.php.net/viewvc/php/php-src/branches/LEMON/
Right now, the Lemon parser is not actually faster than the current
bison parser, so I would suggest not to put this in PHP 5.4 until it
performs at least as well as the current parser.
Are there any possibilities for optimisation so far?
cheers,
Derick
