Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-05-20 01:10:25] tanguy dot pruvot at gmail dot com Yes, PEAR is now usable with this version. Thanks, finally.. almost 2 years since first bug report... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-05-20 00:49:15] paj...@php.net Simply try a snapshot, I double check and no call are done to Rand_Screen &co (so it is in libcurl latest release). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-05-20 00:33:45] tanguy dot pruvot at gmail dot com Thanks, will check Here is my last way to fix it (if openssl is already enabled in php) PHP 5.3.6 VC9 x86 module without SSL Library Init ------------------------------------------------- tanguy.pru...@gmail.com - 06 May 2011 The curl module slow down PHP init on Windows since PHP 5.2 The docs might be a bit sparse in this ares, yes. But the SSL bit should be set unless you have initialized the OpenSSL library already in some other way. And in fact the openssl module already do library init, so if loaded, this patch should not impact security PHP_MINIT_FUNCTION(openssl) ... SSL_library_init(); It is possible to fix that in extension code, in interface.c : by replacing CURL_GLOBAL_SSL by CURL_GLOBAL_WIN32... if (curl_global_init(CURL_GLOBAL_WIN32) != CURLE_OK) { return FAILURE; } Related discussion : http://http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=53578 http://tanguy.tk/?q=content/php-535-correctif-lenteur-au-chargement-de-phpcurl (french) http://osdir.com/ml/web.curl.general/2004-05/msg00068.html http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2004-06/0133.html ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-05-20 00:05:09] paj...@php.net Please try using this snapshot: http://snaps.php.net/php5.3-latest.tar.gz For Windows: http://windows.php.net/snapshots/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-05-20 00:01:09] brian at access9 dot net Win7, x64, php 5.3.6. The php cli is noticeably slower with the curl extension enabled. I can also confirm that tanguy's libeay32.dll fixes the issue. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
