Hi Dustin and thanks for this bug report. Benchmarking is difficult and
repeating one single operation several time is often not a good
performance indicator, however I agree we shouldn't see such a huge
difference. I can reproduce it too as follows:
1. Launch a Focal LXD container
2. apt install php
3. Run `php test.php` (your test script, unmodified). On my machine this it
runs in about 1.5s.
Now in docker:
4. mkdir php-perf-test, copy test.php in this directory and create a
Dockerfile containing the following:
FROM php:7.4-cli
COPY . /tmp/php
WORKDIR /tmp/php
CMD [ "php", "./test.php" ]
5. Run: `docker build -t my-php-app .`
6. Run: `docker run -it --rm --name my-running-app my-php-app`. The test script
runs in about 0.25 in this case, on the same machine.
