Did you try it ? I'm curious, could you run a quick helo world benchmark ( helo.jsp / help.php ) ?
The big question is the level of integration - i.e. if you can call java objects from php or use some of the nice PHP features from java.

Good news, tomcat+php it's easy, php allready have support for. I make a simple try and here's the resulting 'readme' : ++++ Using php in Tomcat5: Easy a servlet is available in php (I have tried with php-4.3.5)
configure the php with: ./configure --with-servlet=$TOMCAT_HOME --with-java=$JAVA_HOME a jarfile and dynamic library are produced: - sapi/servlet/phpsrvlt.jar - libs/libphp4.so
Copy jarfile and arrange web.xml: cp $PHP_HOME/sapi/servlet/phpsrvlt.jar $TOMCAT_HOME/common/lib copy the $PHP_HOME/sapi/servlet/web.xml servlet and servlet-mapping in the $TOMCAT_HOME/conf/web.xml
Start the Tomcat: LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$PHP_HOME/libs export LD_LIBRARY_PATH $TOMCAT_HOME/bin/catalina.sh start
Try it: Create a file named ./webapps/ROOT/test.php containing: +++ <?php phpinfo(); ?> +++ Call it: http://localhost:8080/test.php
Patch for the configure of php:
--- configure.org 2004-04-07 11:20:24.000000000 +0200 +++ configure 2004-04-07 11:22:50.000000000 +0200 if test "$withval" = "yes"; then SERVLET_CLASSPATH=. else + if test -f $withval/common/lib/servlet-api.jar; then + SERVLET_CLASSPATH=$withval/common/lib/servlet-api.jar + fi + if test -f $withval/lib/servlet.jar; then SERVLET_CLASSPATH=$withval/lib/servlet.jar fi ++++
