I posted this on the Zend.com forums but have not been able to get a
response yet. So I decided to ask the people that know.
I do not understand the need for an optimizer. What exactly is Zend
Optimizer optimizing? If it is changing my code, then how about if I just
learn how to code better? Is that all that Zend Optimizer is doing?
Making my code better?
Instead of making a program to fix all the dumb things that programmers
like me do, why not show us what is not working. If post-incrementing is
slower than pre-incrementing then I will just start pre-incrementing.
What if I already write perfect code? Would I still benefit from having
Zend Optimizer on my system?
In other words, is Zend Optimizer a program designed to help poor coders
have faster running code despite their lack of skill? Or is it also
optimizing other things? If so, why are those things not already
optimized?
Can anyone help me unfold this mystery? I have read quite a bit about
what Zend Optimizer is and perhaps I have missed the point. So if there
is a document that explains this, please direct me to it.
Thanks,
Jonathan
