If there are slow examples in the documentation, point to them. Bad
algorithms make scripts slow, not using double quotes where can single
quotes be.

If you write less readable code in PHP because you are counting CPU
cycles which most of the time don't even add up to a noticeable amount
of time, you are doing something wrong IMHO.

I agree that the code examples in the manual teach bad habits. People
use them and don't realize there is a better solution, so they write
everything with this slower code. Once a script gets large enough these
do add up but by then its too late because so many lines would have to
be changed. If the manual showed better examples or at least told
people about the faster solutions it would fix a lot of headaches.

Double quotes and concatenation in output don't cause significant lost
in performance. foreach too, furthermore it's better readable than
while.

Just my opinion.

Those 'insignificant gains' do add up. Does anyone want 
to teach new PHP developers to [ab]use the language 
like that? [Not meaning to bait any flames; just trying 
to help]

Ignoring any arguments about the necessity in real 
code, does anyone have objections?
