[PHP-DEV] Re: [PHP-WINDOWS] PHP 4.0.1dev binaries From: Joel Roller (jroller <email protected>)

I get the exact same results without a php.ini file.

The other odd thing is that a file of the same length, that actually makes use of
php and prints out every line executes much faster than a file that has no <?php
?> section, and only contains the text.

Additionally, large strings are handled very poorly:

print "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"; // executes fine
print "xx.. 1000 xes xxxxx"; // 0.312 sec
print "xx.. 5000 xes xxxxx"; // 3.765 sec
print "xx.. 10,000 xes xxxxx"; // 14.360 sec
print "xx.. 15,000 xes xxxxx"; // 32.046 sec

With the 401-dev build, the 15 thousand character string executes in 0.187
seconds on the same machine.

Can Anyone duplicate these results with the windows 4.0.2? I'd really like to
confirm my sanity.
