I completely agree. The SPP was done to see the difference between the more mature template systems and a plain striped down one. > > Side Note: I wanted to try to use Embperl 2.0, but I couldn't get it > > to compile and didn't have the time to spend on it. > >If you really want to benchmark, you should use 2.0! 2.0 is much faster then >1.3.4. Make sure you use 2.0b7 which is even faster then b5. You can install >1.3.4 and 2.0b7 at then same time, so you can run your benchmark with both >modules.

I took some time and went back and got 2.0b7 installed and ran the test for it and here are the numbers again. EM2 : Embperl-2.0b7. I also re-ran the Mason test as it was not doing the right thing to included files. It was just printing the contents of the 3 files instead of executing them and displaying the contents. This made the numbers closer to Embperl. 025 050 075 100 150 200 300 400 --------------------------------------------- PTT: 059 117 172 207 220 208 199 200 PHP: 060 118 173 211 235 252 249 241 ASP: 039 042 051 ** *** *** *** *** MAS: 057 098 114 114 108 094 067 064 EM2: 057 095 101 095 099 089 056 030 EMB: 040 040 039 039 028 026 * *** SSP: 060 118 172 218 246 268 277 277 --------------------------------------------- MAX: 062 125 187 250 294 294 294 294 For me these numbers are great and I plan on moving to 2.0 as soon as I can for my personal stuff. This works for me because I am only getting about 1 *request* per second, but at work we need to be able to deal with on average 18750 *page views* per second (1.62 billion page views per day on average). Of course this is spread across multiple machines, but you also need to take into consideration the number of machines needed, cost of machines, cost to maintain the software on all those machines, etc. Gerald I just want to say that I think you have created a GREAT thing with Embperl and I will always continue to use it. The whole point of the message was not to slam Embperl, but making sure I wasn't missing something in the configuration with mod_perl or Embperl.
