I think I heard some stat that over 50% of Azure now runs Linux (and I am sure PHP is primarily running on Linux). So given JIT probably helps 95% of production PHP installations I wouldn’t hold this back. If Windows ends up being important to folks some (and possibly msft) will contribute that.
I think we should explore the feasibility of moving some internal PHP functions to userland if performance is reasonable. Will help security.
