Hi all,
Any response to this:

From the FA:
One performance enhancement that Lerdorf suggested based on code
analysis was to use MySQL instead of PostgreSQL for the database.
"If you can fit your problem into what MySQL can handle it's very
fast," Lerdorf said. "You can gain quite a bit of performance."
For the items that MySQL doesn't handle as well as PostgreSQL,
Lerdorf noted that some features can be emulated in PHP itself, and
you still end up with a net performance boost.
I wasn't able to find anything the "article" worth discussing. If you
give up A, C, I, and D, of course you get better performance- just
like you can get better performance from a wheel-less Yugo if you
slide it down a luge track.
