Server Side Include (SSI) is slower than PHP ?

["howard chen" <howachen@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,


I am running  Apache/2.2.6 on Windows XP, testing on a very simple
include testes, e.g.

SSI
===

<!--#include virtual="modules/1.html" -->
<!--#include virtual="modules/2.html" -->
<!--#include virtual="modules/3.html" -->
<!--#include virtual="modules/4.html" -->
<!--#include virtual="modules/5.html" -->


PHP
===

<?php

include("./modules/1.html");
include("./modules/2.html");
include("./modules/3.html");
include("./modules/4.html");
include("./modules/5.html");

?>

I was surprised that PHP is faster, i.e.

ab -n 2000 -c 10  http://localhost/benchmark.php => 99 reqs/sec
ab -n 2000 -c 10  http://localhost/benchmark.shtml => 61 reqs/sec

my PHP version is 5.2.5, and even don't have any code cache libraries
(e.g. APC/eA) installed.

Is it normal?

Howard
