[FLOW3-general] Performance of FLOW3

[Thomas Fritz]

Hi everybody!

It may be a bit different topic to that one but it will be definately a
speed improvement too.
Nowadays we hear a lot about HipHop and "PHP Compiler". I personally read
about other projects like roadsend and phpc which are available much longer
than "HipHop". It also turns out that the roadsend developers and phpc
developers work very hard on a complete new and rewritten version of the
roadsend php compiler. Which goal is a php compiler which produces highly
optimized and secure executable binarys.
It will also be possible, as i understood, to compile different php source
files to php native modules or a whole php application to one fastcgi
compatible binary.
So in case of FLOW3 i can think of a native FLOW3 php module version which -
of course thats theoretically -  would be a massive speed jump.

What do you think about such projects / Ideas?
Have you thought about supporting such an approach in some way (perhaps ship
build files with FLOW3 to build a php module or something of that kind...)?


Just my 2 Cents.
