Hi Jon,

(I'm the author of the benchmarking report.)

I don't agree that it's "Yet Another
Troll/FUD" article. Given how good this article is in most respects, I
expect it to be cited often.

Thank you very much for taking the time to read the whole report, and
then for taking the time to write an accurate synopsis here.  :-)


But there may be problems with the way he has evaluated Symfony in
particular.
Again from the comments...

It's clear that Mr. Jones could use a bit of help with his Symfony tests,

I agree.  I am not a Symfony expert, and it does appear to need some
non-trivial configuration out of the box.

As such, I have placed the entire benchmarking project into a public
repository here ...

 <http://code.google.com/p/web-framework-benchmarks/>

... for everyone to examine.  Please take a close look to see where I
have missed any important details.

Afterwards, if you all could send me a summary email with a series of
config settings, with explanations as to what they do and why, I'd be
very happy to incorporate it and re-run the benchmarks.  (As a matter
of convenience, I'd prefer a summary email, not a series of separate
ones -- you all figure out what's best and send me a combined list.)


It seems to me that one of the Symfony leads should take him up on that
offer, especially since his response will reveal much about his objectivity
and fairness.

I hope that this response helps to show (by example) my openness,
objectivity, and commitment to fair dealing.  :-)
