I'm getting some odd behaviour from Wine when I call it from PHP, and I was wondering if someone who has the command line version of PHP installed would be willing to give the following test a try to see if it is something local to me or not. When I call Wine from a PHP script, it runs perfectly quickly. When I call that PHP script from another one, the whole thing slows down dramatically. Here's a geeky summary: temp$ which php /usr/local/bin/php temp$ ls bar.php foo.php temp$ cat foo.php #!/usr/local/bin/php <?php `./bar.php`; ?> temp$ cat bar.php #!/usr/local/bin/php <?php `wine --version`; ?> temp$ time wine --version Wine 20041019 real 0m0.016s user 0m0.002s sys 0m0.006s temp$ time ./bar.php Wine 20041019 real 0m0.023s user 0m0.008s sys 0m0.006s temp$ time ./foo.php Wine 20041019 real 0m3.034s user 0m0.013s sys 0m0.008s Note the 3 second real time penalty for calling Wine from the second level PHP script. I don't see this with other utilities called from PHP, and I don't see this problem with Wine called from shell scripts. If someone could run foo.php and bar.php and post what they see, I'd appreciate it. Thanks, - Bruce PS, I'm running PHP 4.3.9 on 64-bit Fedora Core 2, for reference. _______________________________________________ wine-users mailing list wine-users@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.winehq.org/mailman/listinfo/wine-users
