However, Davde's goal is to compare the performance of PHP with that of recent javascript implementations, to see what performance PHP has to gain. Obviously, this is actually useful and interesting. However, Davide, I'm not positive that we'd like this in the benchmark suite at the end of the day, though perhaps it can go in a 'misc' directory in the repository?
