NukeCops.com: Boost PHP Page Generation
Times with Zend
06/22/2005 02:48 AMOn
NukeCops.com, the site of the
Official PHP-Nuke development team, there's
this post with a
bit of their experience with the
Zend
Optimizer.
A friend of mine recently installed Zend Optimizer 2.1.0 as we have
here at Nuke Cops. Both sites are high traffic (50,000+ page hits
daily) and pound the web server. Zend Optimizer 2.1.0 increases page
generation times at least 50%.
Prior to having ZO installed our PHP generation times were anywhere
from 2 to 4 seconds consistent. Once ZO was installed and set to
default configuration out of the box, generation times dropped down to
roughly 1.1 seconds. Default config had an optimization configuration
set to "15". Server load times actually decreased as well from a
1.x-2.x down to a 0.5-1.x.
They even offer a
simple, little-known tip to help get your pages out even faster:
in the php.ini file, change the "optimization passes" setting from 15
to 1023. This will enable passes 9 and 10 and squeeze in that little
extra bit to get the pages out that much faster (unfortunately, this
also comes at a price - higher server load).

The Los Angeles Times goes multimedia
The Los Angeles Times goes multimedia
03/21/2003 12:14 AM The Los Angeles Times goes
multimedia. For the past few weeks, the LA Times has begun a
significant push into offering video, audio, and interactive Flash on
their website. One of the most interesting aspects is that the paper
has moved one step beyond simply replaying AP Television clips as many
sites have done; the LA Times writers are stand before the cameras and
microphones themselves and report stories in a stuttering,
non-hairsprayed, introverted demeanor that I find very refreshing,
though so far I have gleaned very little additional information from
it. When does (or can) this mode of journalism on the web rise above
gimmickry or 'just because we can' and add value to a written article?
Can video/tv news rise above mere spectacle?
