ID: 50486 Updated by: basa...@php.net Reported By: basant dot kukreja at gmail dot com Status: Open Bug Type: Performance problem Operating System: Solaris 10 PHP Version: 5.3SVN-2009-12-16 (SVN) New Comment:
Here is the link to the proposed patch : http://bitbucket.org/basantk/php53perfpatches/raw/ca263ffd272b/safe_address_64bitopt_php53.txt Richard Smith did the original work and I refined the patch. In this proposed optimization we can check if the inputs are sufficiently large enough so that overflow is possible. If overflow is possible, regular double logic will follow.

It uses doubles for finding overflow which is very inefficent for platforms like sparc. Reproduce code: --------------- Any Php script causes _ecalloc function. Expected result: ---------------- Good performance on platform other than gcc + x86_64 combo. Actual result: -------------- Poor _ecalloc performance on plaforms like Solaris. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=50486&edit=1
