Doesn't PHP have a much lower memory overhead than perl? I would think that swapping to disk in low-memory situations would affect performance. :-) Maybe the benchmark tests should point this out somehow.

I don't see any reason why PHP would have a lower memory consumption than Perl... Zeev -- Zeev Suraski <zeev@zend.com> http://www.zend.com/ For a PGP public key, finger bourbon@netvision.net.il
