the vast mayority of users will be happy with a more secure system and
will  like accept a 0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.1% slowdown in case it is slow..

Sure, if only we knew that's not 10% slowdown.

I sometimes wonder what it is real target of PHP, the masses or a
selected neglible group of users that requires extreme craze
performance..

Who is "the masses"? Almost everybody I know isn't the masses and is concerned about performance in production. And performance hits are cumulative - ignore 1% performance hit 10 times and you have 10% at least...

maybe I can check that tomorrow.. but you can also run it by yourself :P

I can. Independent verification could be useful though.
