Abstract
PHP script performance (a term we use to encompass indicators such as speed of execution and usage of resources) is an issue for both PHP-based web sites as well as other applications written in PHP. This chapter looks at the issues affecting PHP performance in general, specific performance considerations for nonweb applications, and the tools and resources available for solving performance-related problems. We also look at stability of long-running scripts, which is often tied closely to performance issues..
