Yes, I have noticed some performance issues as well, but we need to nail it down better before we can start really going after this. Could we call on the collective masses of php-general users to run some benchmark tests?
Just build yourselves a libphp4.so for both 4.2.x and 4.3.x and switch the LoadModule line back and forth to benchmark the two versions. Then use something like http_load (http://www.acme.com/software/http_load/) to check various simple scripts. We need to figure out if this is an across-the-board performance problem or if it is one particular aspect which has slowed down. -Rasmus On Sat, 22 Feb 2003, Jason k Larson wrote: > I'm betting this is related... > > I upgraded to 4.3.0 on my production linux servers and began to have > serious socket connection issues.
