mojo highjacks the fundamentals of physics by giving electrons monster energy, making them able to speed up how much clock cycles they can do per second without heating up as much. it's complicated you wouldn't get it. Meanwhile C and C++ instead of using hydrolyctic electron excitation, they're still just generating raw instructions... so arcane... sigh

Even if the benchmark might not be accurate when comparing to other languages, you have to admit that making a PHP script go from 630 requests/sec to nearly 30k requests/sec is a massive improvement.

The baseline PHP test was done with the internal server which is meant for quick and dirty testing/dev, not production. PHP-FPM is far faster than that, especially if configured properly for production

Yea me too, but is really impossible to be faster than go. It really improved the performance no doubt, but not that way.

I've been making my own framework with OpenSwoole for a while. I can confirm, it is faster than Bun and while I haven't tested Go, it can't be that much slower. Although you have to take into consideration that Go is compiled, and this speed is only in a vacuum. Once you start building out ALL the rest of the application Go will, of course, be faster. On top of that, the OpenSwoole library is not actually PHP. It's an extension, written in C++.

I'm pretty sure databases are the main bottlenecks and the source of troubles for 99% of backend applications. Juniors who have no experience of tackling serious performance issues in backend systems, tend to like this kind of discussions.

For a lot of companies, poor database design and maintenance is a major issue. I was brought in to one company and I asked if there were any DBAs and was told we used to have DBAs, but not now. The dev database server was running out of disk space so a ticket was put in to double the diskspace. I looked a the database and just ran a script to shrink the logs and recovered 75% of the existing disk space. I am not a DBA, but as a database developer I have had to perform more DBA tasks in the last few years because companies decided they didn't need DBAs they had full stack engineers.

Maybe, but wouldn't HDD be worse still? A lot of fat frameworks and CMSes and PHP projects not optimized/compiled/cached/whatever, have a ton of file reads, which would be much slower than DB.

Funny how the base compare is with a PHP development server (which should never be used in prod), would like to see how PHP-FPM or the apache module performs, not a dev server.

PHPs integrated server (the first benchmark) is a development server. It doesn't even use multiple workers by default. It's not meant to be used in production. Of course, the second benchmark is also inaccurate because it benchmarks OpenSwole and PHPs JSON implementation which are both written in C, not PHP.

​@@enkiimuto1041 Dude, do you understand that power to use powers of other powers? That basically neglects the need for the usage of any other language except if you want to go low-level. You have amazing developer experience, and all stuff is ready in PHP/Laravel & PHP can use extensions like Swoole or Parallel or even use Go capabilities while Go can't use the capabilities of PHP!

I’ve tried Swoole but I’m not sure if it’s production ready per se, but it’s an exciting direction for PHP. Definitely requires you to think differently and carefully about how you architect your PHP app since it is contrary to the traditional model of the short lived lifecycle (where everything starts fresh and gets discarded at end of request). It is very interesting, though.

I love OpenSwoole - finally PSR-7 compliant as well now. PHP and Go are similar in that they compile extra fast. PHP, Java, and .Net are similar in that there is a virtual machine running translated bytecode.

Hey, that’s my video! Appreciate the dig through it, lot of valid points in those comments. If you’re ever in the mood to dig into PHP sometime, let me know! 😂

10 lines of code benchmarks are like looking through a keyhole and trying to figure out the room's size.

PHP is fast enough for most use cases. Just don't use any frameworks (or ORMs). Decade ago I helped to rewrite a video rental service. Original one was done with PHP + some popular framework at the time and managed to handle 20 users/s. We implemented the service as pure PHP without ORM and managed to get 2000-3000 users/s on the same hardware. We did also test node.js implementation and it was twice as fast, but customer didn't want to go with that as PHP devs were so much cheaper and easier to find than node devs. Today they would probably want it to be implemented with Java and Spring Boot, ugh. Still that would make more sense than use node :)

This is amazing considering it's a simplified and dynamic typed language. This is because it's a thinner layer on top of C than most languages are today. 2) It's extremely quick to work in because it simplifies coding... at the same time it doesn't limit you to do crazy shit if needed. Best of both worlds. 3) Other languages are more of a pain in the ass due to lower convenience + longer code, or are a tad easier but dramatically slower ( meaning you will spend more time optimizing and go negative on your productivity gains ), PHP hits a great sweet spot for me of short code and fast code. 4) Much like Rasmus Lerdorf himself, i am simply an impatient programmer. My PHP scripts take less than a megabyte per instantiation on average, i personally don't feel like that is too much.

PHP is a great language. Just let it be.

did i just.. witness a birth of a supervillain?

Are you sure that's the fastest Bun? Have you tried Elysiajs? I don't know i expected Bun more closed to Go.

The issue with "async PHP" is that once you use it, you throw out all native PHP functions that do IO. Also i would be interested to see a deeper comparison what is actually done in the async PHP runtime. Does it handle all sorts of issues with encoding and unicode? As a default its most likely just dumping bytes and not doing much else. Every time i did run some stringly benchmarks with PHP perf dropped drastically when you did unicode (what most other languages do as a default)

Is the repo of the source code of the benchmarks public?

“Dude do you even bench….mark?”

Guess what Appwrite backend is in Swoole

Never used PHP, but its absurd that it is faster than GO(I have seen it being faster than rust in some edge cases)... Even the most unoptimzed code should outperform majority of the interpreted languages.

Everything aside, we can at least agree that that is a pretty cool module name. lol

Actually, JavaScript is faster than digital circuits using the timewarp library.

The problem is that PHP is synchronous by default. On the contrary JS & Go are asynchronous by default. So all the libraries of JS and Go will natively support asynchronous code, but for each PHP I/O lib you will have to find an up-to-date version of this library supporting asynchronous code which is not necessarily easy (same problem than python async apps).

tl;dw; If your PHP application uses an HTTP server written in C/C++ and doing nothing except calling two functions written in C then PHP is faster than GO :D

php serve is slow, php-fpm still has some unnecessary overhead, especially when using big frameworks, but php itself does crunching really fast when you let it

I don't get why it was slow without Swoole and way faster with it. What server were they using with php before using it with Swoole? Yes, php is blocking, but I thought that didn't matter because, well it's not like you typically run a server implemented in blocking php. Instead you use Apache or something and it just launches more php instances as needed, or something like that (I'm probably wrong about this part...)
