But we're not targeting PHP for in-kernel packet filtering. And we should not sacrifice language semantics for minuscule gains in performance. Especially given that banning unset by itself will achieve nothing - you also have to deal with lots of other ways object can be initialized. > Run bench.php with CALL and GOTO VM. > You'll see 20-30% performance difference caused by branch miss-prediction. That's whole VM, not one branch which is never taken. > I think, If we may eliminate checks we should do it (at type-system > design level). I don't think we really can without introducing some very strange limitations, like banning unsets or limiting serialization or introducing special magic methods that are optimized differently, etc. -- Stas Malyshev smalyshev@gmail.com
