Greetings all,

We have recently released a project we have been working on for some months
now as an Alpha version and while we have focussed primarily on bug fixing
as well as feature completion for the next Alpha release coming up in a
week, I can't help but notice something disconcerting.

The project we have developed is a replacement of an existing product. The
previous version, coded before my time at the company, is old, procedural
and uses a very inefficient, un-normalised database structure.

For our new version, we decided to use symfony for maintainability reasons
as well as the fact that this version will be a lot more complex than its
predecessor so symfony's ability to simplify the development helps us
immensely.

The problem I have noticed is that the new symfony version seems to be
performing ... well ... badly. Loading pages on the new version takes a lot
longer, talkin 10-50 times longer than the previous version. I went so far
as to view the development logs and manually run SQL queries on our new
normalised database schema vs the old version un-normalised version and the
new schema performs batter by a factor of 100x so I know that it is
definitely not the database slowing things down. I even installed
eAccelerator and tested the PHP processing speeds after that but have noted
no significant changes.

My question .. are there any perrformance enhancements for symfony on a
production server that anyone can think of that might help the situation?
Also, does using Ajax loaded div's contribute negatively to the performance
issues?

Thanks and look forward to some tips :D

Gareth
