Here's a discussion on the performance problem: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-performance/2008-January/003096.html I remember, but can't find the reference now, that the problem became visible because PHP introduced realpath() checking for include files in a minor release (like 5.1.6 or something like that) to work around a security problem. This is when users saw noticeable drops in performance (and I don't think it solved their security problem :) ). _______________________________________________ svn-src-all@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/svn-src-all To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
