Hello Sebastian,

could you please repeat the tests for php 4.3 to see the interesting
difference? Also how about providing a spreadsheet for a better overiew?
How did you do the timeings, i assume time command? And what CPU did you
us, especially how much cache arewe talking about?

best regards
marcus
