[TBIKC]

What about to update this information ?
This schedule no longer relevant

[samdark]

We have source code for this benchmark http://code.google.com/p/phpmark/ but, unfortunitely not enough time to update it. Probably will move it to github to allow pull-requests.

I mentioned it on github already: There is a comparison that is only slightly out-of-date. I think it could be brought into proper shape really quickly by the community. As for the benchmarking: I'm preparing a quadcore machine for some benchmarking with Fedora 17, so I could generate some initial data. it's not server-grade hardware (i.e. there is no 15,000RPM HDD and it's limited to 8GB of RAM), but I think the results could be representative.

Da:Sourcerer, It wiil be great, if you do this

[Da:Sourcerer]

Meh. This is going to take a while.

[Da:Sourcerer]

I start to understand why there are so few benchmarks. It really is a lot of work and I'm still far from complete This really requires to read the documentation for most frameworks and create a small application for them as they provide no "Hello World" demo.

I managed to draw a few frameworks together and produce this (inconclusive) benchmark:
 benchmark.png (31.85K)
Number of downloads: 53

This has been conducted on a notebook equipped with a AMD E-450 CPU/GPU unit running Fedora 17 with a kernel patched and optimized for interactivity - which might explain some oddeties. E.g. Laravel is impressive but hardly that much

What a strange image

Although Yii performances are good, from a marketing point of view I wouldn't include a benchmark where Yii doesn't win.

Something is wrong there...

I blame it on a non-optimized Apache/PHP environment and a custom kernel. Perhaps I should've booted into the stock kernel but I've been too impatient to get a quick glance

By the way: samdark, are there any plans to revive the phpmark project? I'm a long way from being able to provide a really complete (i.e. go beyond simple "Hello World" demos) and fair (i.e. provide automated stats on memory consumption, disk I/O, etc) benchmarks. There will also be quite a lot of administrative overhead. The power of git submodules eases that a bit. But still ...

Hm, the original phpmark has been set in place to provide a fair comparison. But from a marketing point, you're actualy right. In the full benchmark, I'd like to include metrics like the spread of response times. As I see it, Yii is pretty constant there ...

Suggestion: don't use Fedora but use a - clean - server-grade distro (i.e. Ubuntu Server LTS, RHEL, CentOS, Scientific Linux).

[Da:Sourcerer]

Fedora is my choice for desktop systems. Everything else is on CentOS/RHEL, so don't worry. This has just been a quick peek.

Edit: Coming to think of it, I left the conservative cpufreq governor in instead of the performance one. *sigh* it's been late ...

hmm................
this image is something to ponder

I wouldn't try to draw any conclusions from this. See the discussion above. This benchmark has been commenced in a controlled, yet entirely unfit environment

[samdark]

I don't think we'll ever update phpmark. As you've mentioned, it takes time and we'd better focus on Yii itself.

[Da:Sourcerer]

I'm wondering if it might be possible to offload the creation and maintenance of sample applications to the framework devs and introduce a github service similar to travis-ci. This would allow automated benchmarks and statistics. Is phpmark.com held by qiang?

[samdark]

Yes, it is.
