Try and get a copy of the files and database, then set it up on your dev machine. Then profile using Xdebug. If you're looking for comparison numbers maybe look at: http://sebastian-bergmann.de/archives/745-Benchmark-of-PHP-Branches-3.0-through-5.3-CVS.html Just FYI, using ADODB will slow down the performance of your app. Any function calls cost against you and it all adds up.
