Looks like it's lstat()/readlink() overhead. I wrote a simple bit of PHP similar to yours, but doing 10 * 1000 require "foo/%d/%d.php" calls from the command line: -% time ktrace php main.php Real: 0:09.61 CPU: 99.8% (3.725/5.885) Page: 0 Swap: 0 I/O: (0/0) Mem: 13704 -% time ktrace php -d open_basedir='/home/freaky/openbasedir/foo' main.php Real: 0:16.21 CPU: 86.4% (8.185/5.840) Page: 0 Swap: 0 I/O: (0/0) Mem: 13696 Without open_basedir, a simple script to parse the kdump syscall times produces: lstat : 1.147s/70065 calls = 0.000s per call. Max=0.000s Min=0.0000s fcntl : 0.408s/60007 calls = 0.000s per call. Max=0.000s Min=0.0000s sigprocmask : 0.229s/40311 calls = 0.000s per call.

Max=0.000s Min=0.0000s open : 0.222s/10085 calls = 0.000s per call. Max=0.000s Min=0.0000s The top two syscalls seem to account for most of the 6.mumble seconds of additional runtime; presumably these are much cheaper on Linux. -- Thomas 'Freaky' Hurst http://hur.st/ _______________________________________________ freebsd-performance@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-performance To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
