Hello, I am Yasuaki Takebe, a software engineer who loves programming language processors. I am now developing a PHP accelerator named PHP-Mix. PHP-Mix uses script-to-script program transformation technique as opposed to other PHP accelerators. It generates a faster PHP script by "partially" executing a source PHP script in advance. This technique is known as partial evaluation. Currently, a prototype version of PHP-Mix is released. This prototype supports a (not so small) subset of PHP. http://php-mix.sourceforge.net/ And a description of the basic mechanism of PHP-Mix is here. http://php-mix.sourceforge.net/introduction.html If you are interested in this, please send me any comment.
