Hello Mike, not that I have any benchmarks. But I have one thing you might want to know. You extract a phar and map it to the extracted folder. That is any operation that would normally end up in the phar then ends up in direct file access. Doing so would add a tiny overhead for loading the file only. That is the pahr extension has to figure out that it is responsible for a file and then modify the filename. This should not be measurable at all.
