Re: [PHP] PHP complied code
Actually all PHP4 code is compiled before it is executed. What the author of that book suggests is pre-compiling a script. The difference between a standard script and a pre-compiled script is the time it takes to parse the code. You might pre-compile scripts that are going to see heavy use on your server. Or you might pre-compile a very large script to avoid the inherent latency in the interpretor as an optimization step. The only encoder I know of is Zend Encoder ($2400) at www.zend.com. Here's the deal though. If you don't know that you need to pre-compile then chances are you don't have to. The benefits to the casual programmer are negligable. -Kevin - Original Message - From: "Manuel Ochoa" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, January 02, 2003 1:46 PM Subject: [PHP] PHP complied code > > I recently read a book on PHP and the author breifly said that if you compile the PHP code it would improve the performance. > > Is there a way to compile the code? > -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] PHP complied code
If maybe you googled, or even read a message posted 4 minutes earier, you would see there are such programs as: ionCube PHP Accelerator: www.php-accelerator.co.uk Zend optimizer/encoder www.zend.com Andrew - Original Message - From: "Manuel Ochoa" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, January 02, 2003 8:46 PM Subject: [PHP] PHP complied code > > I recently read a book on PHP and the author breifly said that if you compile the PHP code it would improve the performance. > > Is there a way to compile the code? > -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] PHP complied code
I recently read a book on PHP and the author breifly said that if you compile the PHP code it would improve the performance. Is there a way to compile the code?
