I never really understood the reason for this hyper-aggressive loading of everything and it's brother, whether you want it or not. It sure would be nice to have the ability to turn off the auto loading, and do a manual loading of only what you need in your action something like a Containable

We can't forget that even not using $uses, when loading a Model it will construct all its links, and its link will construct all of their links, and so forth... So, anyway, you are most probably going to load each and every model by just loading a single one - even though they might have nothing t

As someone who has written/writing a CMS using CakePHP, even this is not of concern. A bit of mod_rewrite trickery has allowed us to write custom code for very fast viewing content pages, while the administration interface is kept within Cake's MVC. Who cares if the administration interface is a l

One thing I also dislike. Is that cake loads all models, and all models on a model, and it just keeps going down and down. It does this with everything, components on components and what not. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed

CakePHP does have some issues with aggressive loading, and have terrible performance in a lot of areas, but that benchmark, doesn't really measure anything regarding to Yii. Because of Yii's lazy loading, practically none of the commonly used objects/classes are loaded in the test application. Thi

Those benchmarks are flawed and unreliable because I think that the author do not know know to set up benchmarks correctly. He even doesn't care about framework life cycle. Moreover, IMO, Yii is hard to extend. http://www.thedeveloperday.com/framework-battles-yii-vs-zend-framework/ On Sun, Jan 25

I'll probably stick to CakePHP because I love it's design and all the help it gives. I just took a look at Yii and tried to find a helper that can do "xxx days ago" style date formatting and it doesn't have one. So I can imagine it could be missing lots of small touches like this that make CakePHP

In my opinion, Performance is no longer the biggest issue in programming. Server cost no longer outweigh development cost. Most companies don't have a huge budget to start a new project. What my company does is, develop a full-fledge programme first. Make the money! If the project fails, FINE! B

Yes, it would be great to have a fully-fledged application example, complete with "time to develop" and "lines of maintainable code" benchmarks. And another one which measures mental anguish experienced by the framework. On Jan 26, 7:38 am, Miles J wrote: > Yes I always hate benchmarks because i

Yes I always hate benchmarks because it only deals with "Hello world" applications. How about they build robust applications in each framework and then give us a real benchmark that matters. Also Symfony is slower then Cake. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this

I know there has been another thread about this, but I want to say that newcomers looking at http://www.yiiframework.com/performance might be afraid of investing into using CakePHP 1.2. >From those numbers, Yii with APC on is about 10x faster than CakePHP (!?) Even compared to CakePHP 1.1, CakeP
