Since nobody -- not even the "perpetrators" themselves -- has brought this to this list yet I'll simply post these two links: - http://edwardbear.org/optimizations - http://www.edwardbear.org/fasterharderstronger.diff I am posting this since there are already a couple of people asking whether or not these optimizations will make into the official PHP versions and this list seems to be the place of choice for discussing this, no? :-)

yes. PHP4 was only chosen because PHP5 (Zend Engine 2) was a moving target, and after a day, our patch would be broken, or we'd constantly have to remerge. Nearly every optimization applys to Zend Engine 2, with the exception of the optimizations that are already in Zend Engine 2 that is :) -Sterling Am Mo, 2003-09-01 um 01.29 schrieb Cristiano Duarte:

How long have you been testing these hacks? Are there any side-effects ? Are you planning a ZE2 patch? I can test it... Cristiano "Sterling Hughes" <sterling@bumblebury.com> escreveu na mensagem news:1062328344.31562.57.camel@hasele...
