[PHP4BETA] why are system & exec so slow? From: Troy Hakala (troy <email protected>)
Date: 04/30/00

i have a perl script that runs very quickly when run from the command line.
however, when i try to run it from php using system(), exec() or the
backtick operator it takes a LONG time to return. why are these calls so
slow? what can i do to speed it up?
