Package Info
-------------
QB stands for "Quick Binary." It's a PHP extension designed to enable faster 
handling of binary data. It takes a function written in PHP and translate it 
for a specialized virtual machine. The use of static type information leads 
significantly higher performance than under PHP's regular dynamic type system. 
A PHP+QB function can run anywhere from five to twenty times faster than 
regular PHP code. For even higher level of performance, one can compile PHP+QB 
functions to native code (on supported platforms).

QB performs code translation on a per-function basis. It does not affect in 
anyway code not specially marked. Interaction between PHP+QB functions and 
regular PHP code is basically seamless. A key design objective of QB is to let 
developers harness greater processing power than what baseline PHP offers 
without the risk involved in adopting a brand new platform.
