Lemme just think, doing inheritance at compile time before we send the stuff to an opcode cache can be slower then? How is that possible? After all late binding means we do it at run time. And no matter how much faster we can do it. It will always be slower than doing the same thing only once. > We do not need to deprecate anything, and inheritance can not be bound > before parent class is known, which in the case of bytecode cache means > - not before the file is loaded from the cache.

Inheritance cannot be done before the parent class is known. We still need to do the prototype checks even if we assume the class is there and insert a virtual class as parent somehow.
