[PHP] a passion to perform ;)

2004-05-13 Thread Matthias H. Risse
Hi,

i just benchmarked some of my applications with PEAR::Benchmark
and would like to know if any of you have good literature
regarding PHP and performance in generall? I am not talking
about precompiled scripts (ioncube, zend, ..)
Basically I am trying to find out how good a standard HTML rendering 
PHP-Applications usually performs? Furthermore I wonder of there are any 
usability papers/studies regarding this topic?

(how long is long for a user? how
long is a user on broadband usually expectin a page to load without
thinking damn. why does this take so long?)
Maybe anyone knows of a good free performace and memory profiler?

Yours,
Matthias

I still stick with the old rule:
If it takes more then 2 seconds to load anything, 5 seconds to do a
complete page with lots of images on dial-up then you have to go back to
the drawing board.  2-5 seconds has always been your window to get a
page to load and keep the visitor.  On top of that stay away from
flash/shockwave and you are ahead of the game.

My $.02
