Good
news for those who (like me) rather use PHP as an Apache
Module, I just ran the benchmark script on:
Windows Server 2012
Apache 2.4 x64
PHP 5.5.3 x64 as Apache Module
And got this:
PHP version : 5.5.3
Platform : WINNT
--------------------------------------
test_math : 1.093 sec.
test_stringmanipulation : 2.106 sec.
test_loops : 0.772 sec.
test_ifelse : 0.477 sec.
--------------------------------------
Total time: : 4.448 sec.
This was a Virtual Machine so it doesn't have the
power of a real server, but at least it scores a lot better than
Windows Server 2008 R2.
If somebody can run it on Server 2012 with IIS, please post the
results.
Thanks

I
just tested PHP 5.5.3 running on Apache as Fast CGI with
mod_fcgid and got these results:
PHP version : 5.5.3

test_math : 0.768 sec.
test_stringmanipulation : 1.876 sec.
test_loops : 0.728 sec.
test_ifelse : 0.521 sec.

And according to a wiki I read (don't remember which one) mod_fastcgi is supposed to be even faster.
So I guess PHP runs faster as CGI than a module, which to me is weird.
Which leads me to my next question, how is that possible having in mind that as per php.net:
===========
Warning
A server deployed in CGI mode is open to several possible vulnerabilities. Please read our CGI security section to learn how to defend yourself from such attacks.
===========
I guess it's time to open a bug in PHP's bugzilla site.

Hey I have an issue and I ran out of ideas.
I have two virtual servers, one running debian with compiled php and one
running server 2008 with php non thread safe version.
Both have 5.5.3 version installed and both have almoust the same config and
modules, with opcache enabled.
However I ran the benchmark script found online and I get this values:
Linux:
PHP version : 5.5.3
Platform : Linux

test_stringmanipulation : 1.625 sec.

Windows:

--------------------------------------
test_math : 2.516 sec.

test_loops : 1.516 sec.
test_ifelse : 0.781 sec.

Total time: : 10.11 sec.
The question is am I missing something? can somebody with more experience
advise me what to setup on php or iis to improve this?
Not to mention that the windows server has double amount of ram and cpu.
I know I know I should blame Microsoft but even so I doubt THEY can do anything
in this setup. So I doing my best on my own, I would love to have Linux on that
box but it's not up to me.
