The Encoder does in fact all of the optimizations of the Zend Optimizer 
(including ones that aren't enabled in the plug-in Zend Optimizer, because

something that is not an issue in a one time compilation.
The reason it's not named 'Compiler' is indeed because people usually (and 
erroneously) expect all compilers to produce machine language code.
