You should read the book. It will help you understand the frameworks, how they work, and how to code them. That said, all of the most popular frameworks add a fairly significant amount of overhead. If you need to create a high performance site, be prepared to jump into caching so the framework doesn't load on every page hit. Here is a kind of old report on benchmarking some frameworks to create "Hello World". http://avnetlabs.com/php/php-framework-comparison-benchmarks While you won't be creating a "Hello World" web page, an Ajax call would have similar processing requirements (not a lot of data, simple request). You should now how to create simple pages outside of any framework, for those simple solutions.
