Hello all I have recently installed PHP 5.0 Beta 4 on my development server and am very concerned with performance. I have read everywhere, that PHP5 offers increased performance. However, in my tests, the requests per second have decreased dramatically:
PHP5: Requests per second: 4.23 [#/sec] (mean) PHP4: Requests per second: 23.08 [#/sec] (mean) Full test results are below. The environment and the requested page are identical in both tests (using ab). The tests were run on Apache/1.3.28. Has anyone else experienced similar behavior? Or can anyone suggest what is happening... Thank you in advance.
