I personally have not unfortunately. A good friend of mine is also a

I don't want to stick with the he-said, she-said approach, I did a quick
google search and came up with this link:
http://spindrop.us/2007/03/03/php-double-versus-single-quotes/
There's several other pages saying similar things if you do look around.
Even the performance different isn't significant, it will add up. If
something like this is known to help ever so slightly with execution time
and it's something you can teach yourself to do subconsciously, then I feel
it's definitely worthwhile to pursue.

This may or may not help, but here's a few things to note:
1) I would avoid placing variable output in double quoted strings.
While not
important for smaller scripts, doing a large number of outputs like
this
causes a decent performance hit. In fact, I wouldn't use double quotes
ever
in php. Instead, strive for something like:
echo '<b><a href="test.php?term='.$letter_value.'">'.$letter_value.'
</a></b>';
Have you benchmarked this, or can you provide a link to others'
benchmarks demonstrating this perofmrnace hit?...

Yeah, I get a buck. So?
Check out this page I just created using the example from the link that
you provided.
I have grown off what the above examples page.
it takes a few seconds to load, so be patient.
