The problem is that a realistic applications does a lot of things that are not easily simulated: - usually has a lot of code, lots of include files, libraries, etc. (so it stresses file systems, as was shown with fstat() in the thread - the code is most likely checking for changes in PHP libraries) - uses a database, which is populated with real-world data (so it has a lot of IPC of very varied sizes) - uses some kind of caching, both of compiled PHP code (eAccelerator, pecl-APC) and of data (eAccelerator, memcached) (which uses SysV SHM and IPC). Reducing all that to a C file that does all of it is very nontrivial. For "classic" setups with mod_php, it's not uncommon that httpd processes grow to 100 MB or more each, with all the heavy stuff brought in. _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
