They also removed refcounting from the language - meaning, as I understand from this: The project's biggest deviation from the PHP specification is probably that GC is no longer reference counting. That means that the object finalizer, when implemented, will not be called directly at the moment of object death, but at some later point. that they do not destroy objects at all currently. So these benchmarks don't mean much. But the idea is interesting, if they ever take it to actually working implementation. It's the kind of things that first 90% take 90% effort, and last 10% take another 90% effort. -- Stanislav Malyshev, Software Architect SugarCRM: http://www.sugarcrm.com/ (408)454-6900 ext. 227 -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
