Now I think we need someone to volunteer to "make a few changes" to the PHP code in an effort to speed up PHP's results. If it's fair for Scott to do this to make webdna perform faster than the first results, then it is also fair for an expert PHP programmer to do some code optimizing in PHP, right? If you're only interested in which software can perform the fastest in the real world, you might try doing a real world test. Obviously a test that does things that seldom happen in the real world is not going to be an accurate comparison because the 'contrived' test procedures will always favor one software over another. Change the contrived procedures and you've reversed the test results! -- Sincerely, Kenneth Grome ------------------------------------------------------------- Outsource your WebDNA programming for $18 an hour or less! ------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list
