Hi,
I think zend_hash_compare could get a healthy speed boost in some
cases if first it would check whether the two variables passed to it
are actually the same (because of "reference counting"). Sorry, my C
skills are way too rusty to write the patch which is likely to be
just
a few lines long.
A quick patch/test seems to agree with you, I'd be interested to
know if you/others are able to apply this patch and see any real-
world savings with your web application. The following was done
with a debug build of PHP so results are likely exaggerated. I'm
also using non-recursive array with 256 byte strings below, results
with numeric values are less significant of course (approx a 25%
gain)...
I'll also look into applying this to some other functions like
compare_function where it's likely to yield a larger savings in a
general application.
