I don't even mind if --disable-all doesn't disable ext/standard but it'd be nice that if we do a split to core/ and standard/ (I wouldn't go into more granularity than that) that we could have a --disable-standard.
I see no problem if it's not included in --disable-all. It is then left to the system administrator to shoot himself in the foot if he decides to --disable-standard.
On the other hand I don't think any system administrator running someone elses scripts uses disable-all anyway. So I guess either --disable-all or --disable-all-and-more are ok :-)
It wouldn't hurt anyone and it *is* a pressing problem from talks I've had with all sorts of ppl that have high traffic machines.
Seems weird to me but I have to take your word for it. We have a caching loadbalancer which frees up apache processes more quickly. And we disabled keepalive at some points. But providing a low-footprint PHP for people who can't use these methods could be a good thing.
No one answered me about regex btw. Is it only being compiled because of the regex functions in ext/standard or does anyone know if other places
I had a quick look and browscap seems to use it. And some internal split functions are in ext/standard/reg.c, not sure where they are used.
