Hi I want to measure the performance of a specific php-script. That script performs, based on session information (that I copied directly into that file for test purposes), some calculations and database queries. When I look at the script in a browser, it does what it should and takes about 2 seconds to finish (slow development machine). When I run the script with ab (ab -n 1000 -c 10 http://localhost/path/to/script.php) I get a measure for "requests per second" of 500-900. I asume, that no parsing/executing of the script is done. To check, I put in a db-write at the beginning of the script which writes, if the page is called in the browser and doesn't, if it is called by ab. Does anyone know, why the php-part is not executed when I use ab or where I should start off to find the problem?
