hi... php appears to be fine/good for prototyping. my question; does anybody have testing experience regarding scalability of php .vs java. ie, can php scale to handle 1000s of simultaneous connections/users, as well as deal with the various security issues... articles dealing with actual live test data would be helpful. i'd also be interested in hearing from your experience if you've actually had to look into this issue. haven't really seen a lot of hard data on this via google.. lots of mine is better than yours.. but i'm trying to really get a feel as to whether php can really drive serious commercial sites...
Put simply, it's down to the quality of the programmer. Good programmer = good code; scalable and performant. Bad programmer = bad code. It doesn't get any simpler than that really.
