I need to use SOAP right now, so I can't wait for PHP 4.1 (when will it be released anyway ?), but I will jump to it as soon as it will be available, of course !!! :) > A benchmark I did a few weeks ago gave us a an 8x overall tps > increase Of course, it would be great if all functionnality were included natively in PHP.

My C knowledge is very old and rusted so I can't do that, but I'm sure someone will soon work on it. Web Services are the new hype, and I think PHP needs to be able to propose such functionnalities.
