As far as the future direction of embedded PHP (and let's agree here we aren't talking about every application, for mass vhosters some fcgi or suid flavor of PHP is going to remain a better choice, and for others, so we can avoid that debate)...
The next direction for server worker pools will likely be a threadless connection; while waiting for your POST body the php engine environment will most efficiently be parked and resumed on another thread. (Some code has been started in this direction at httpd although there are no corresponding 'engine' hacks yet for embedded language systems.) So although the new patches look great for a threading application, keep in mind that a more traditional zts mode may be worthwhile to retain. -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
