- A HOWTO on Optimizing PHP
- License: Shareware
- Price:

PHP is a very fast programming language, but there is more to optimizing PHP than just speed of code execution. This article explains why optimizing PHP involves many factors which are not code related, and why tuning PHP requires an understanding of how PHP performs in relation to all the other subsystems on your server, and then identifying bottlenecks caused by these subsystems and fixing them. It also covers how to tune and optimize your PHP scripts so they run even faster.

- Price: 0.00

PHP native date functions use integer timestamps for computations. Because of this, dates are restricted to the years 1901-2038 on Unix and 1970-2038 on Windows due to integer overflow for dates beyond those years. This library was developed to overcome these limitation by replacing the native function's signed integers with PHP floating point numbers when necessary. This library supports dates from 100 A.D. to billions of years in the future. For high speed, this library uses the native date functions where possible, and only switches to PHP code when the dates fall outside the 32-bit signed integer range.

PHP is an Open Source language that is widely popular on the web. However because PHP so popular in shared hosting environments, many people have an impression that PHP is only for small scale web-sites. This is patently untrue, and PHP is in use in many large scale web sites such as Yahoo Finance and for the creation of large web applications such as IMP. This article is an attempt to readdress the balance and show how PHP is used in the enterprise.

- FastCGI: Robust and High Performance PHP with IIS
- License: Shareware
- Price:

This is a guide to using and installing FastCGI, IIS and PHP. The recommended way to run stable PHP applications in IIS is CGI. But since a new process is created for each request and thrown away when the request is done, CGI efficiency is poor. Furthermore the PHP ISAPI dll was never stable enough for my needs, because ISAPI requires thread-safety, but many PHP extensions are not thread-safe.

- PHP4 Session Handler using ADODB
- License: Shareware
- Price:

PHP4 is packed with good features. One of the most popular is session variables. These are variables that persist throughout a session, as the user moves from page to page. Session variables are great holders of state information and other useful stuff. PHP4's session variables are stored in files by default. However for true scalability, it is better to store this data in a database using a database wrapper library like ADODB. ADODB supports Oracle, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Interbase, MSSQL, VFP, Access, ADO.
