ORM has attracted a lot of attention in the last years. So let's get a bit deeper into it. The biggest advantage of ORM is also the biggest disadvantage: queries are generated automatically queries can't be optimized queries select more data than needed, things get slower, more latency (some ORMs fetch all datasets of all relations of an object even though only 1 attribute is read) compiling queries from ORM code is slow (ORM compiler written in PHP) SQL is more powerful than ORM query languages database abstraction forbids vendor specific optimizations Other problems coming up with ORM compiling ORM logic from phpDoc instructions or XML files is slow, but can be cached ORM validates relations and field names outside the database, but can't keep relations consistent ORM libraries are often used in projects without making a benchmark before ORM libraries are often used because the documentation of the library says it is very fast ORM libraries are often used by default with

Here is a list of things you should not do in PHP. Most of the stuff is pretty obvious, but over the years I've seen a lot of them. In most cases, these problems remain hidden until data grows above 10000 entries. So on a development system, things are always fast and there are no problems with memory limits :-) Suppose we have a table with 100k entries: $db->query('create table stats (c1 int(11) primary key, c2 varchar(255))'); $db->query('begin'); for ($i=0; $i<100000; $i++) { $db->query('insert into stats values ('.$i.','.($i*2).')'); } $db->query('commit'); Populate a big array instead of streaming results: $result = $db->query('select * from stats'); $array = $result->fetch_all(); // 35M // or while ($row = $result->fetch_assoc()) $array[] = $row; // 35M // or while ($row = $result->fetch_array()) $array[] = $row; // 44.5M // process $array ... // instead of: while ($row = $result->fetch

Lessons learned: objects need more memory than arrays (+ 2-10 percent) comparing 32bit to 64bit systems, memory consumption increases by 100-230 percent if array values are numeric, don't save them as strings! saving 1M integers takes 200M of memory with PHP on a 64bit plattform (increase by factor 25) using SplFixedArray can reduce memory usage by 20-130 percent avoid big Arrays and Objects in PHP whenever possible (don't use file('big_file') or explode("\n", file_get_contents('big_file')), etc.) use streams whenever possible (fopen, fsockopen, etc.) use generators when available with PHP 5.5 ( RFC ) If you need to save memory temporarily in your script, you can stringify your array (increasing cpu usage and runtime): $a = array(); for ($i=0; $i<1000000; $i++) { $a[] = $i; } $a = implode(',', $a); // or $a = json_encode($a); echo number_format(memory_get_usage(true)/1048576, 2)."\n"; // 8.0 M (64bit), 7.5 M (32bit) Here is

Intent of this post ================= This article is about approach for structuring MVC application so as to manage front end  raw HTML design code along with developer's corresponding dynamic razor code Background ================== In general,  following is a flow of an idea to a live page (from design perspective): Now here comes a question:  "How should static HTML code and dynamic Razor code be managed in a solution?" Answer...Depends.......! Case-1 : When developer is the same person who does both front end design and server code, there is no special arrangement required and one physical .cshtml file is enough.  Case-2 : When designers are smart enough to sneak into developer's razor code and implement any UI requirement, again a single file is sufficient. Case-3 : In bigger projects, where exists separate team for Design+HTML code and Razor+Backend code which is bridged by a Manager, there, it is really a good idea to have design HTML exists physically separat

In many performance guides, Smarty is considered to be removed to speed up things. But oftentimes it's not Smarty causing performance problems, but rather big modifier chains not being cached. To point this out, we need to profile our template which is quite difficult when Smarty compiles in into something unreadable. So we need a quick and easy way to replace the Smarty template engine with pure PHP code. Since Smarty can't do more than PHP, let's replace Smarty with simple PHP templates. So I'm providing here a small guide to replace Smarty with simple PHP based templates. These can be also cached by APC without any compiler. First thing: Smarty configuration files e.g. core.conf foo = bar [core] logo = public/img/logo.png link = http://www.simple-groupware.de notice = Photo from xy bg_grey = #F5F5F5 Now let's convert it to PHP: core_conf.php <?php $config = array( "logo" => "public/img/logo.png", "bg_grey" => &qu

Welcome to my first blog! Yes, I'm a bit late in 2012, but I've collected some important things I'd like to write down and analyze in more detail. In the daily IT business, it is often unclear if software should be optimized or better hardware should be ordered. This blog should help you to make this decision easier by looking at the benchmarks of possible software optimizations. Here is a small agenda of the things I'll write in the next weeks: The impact of APC/Optimizer+ APC vs Memcached (local vs distributed cache, refresh, serialization) The power of cache warming How to write a really small and fast AJAX controller with PHP How to write a really small and fast O/R-mapper with PHP How to write a really small and fast CMS Why entity–attribute–value is bad for performance How to benchmark a PHP framework How to find the right PHP framework (or why to write your own) How to implement client side session storage Iteration vs Recursion ...

Hi, how are you? In this tutorial I will clarify you the timestamp based protocol with explanation. I think this tutorial may help you to understand the timestamp based protocol easily. Now think the given picture.  This is a picture of real timestamp. Real timestamp show you the time. But database timestamp what is it? Yes, database timestamp is same as real timestamp.  What is a database timestamp? Database timestamp is nothing but it counts the time of any transaction. It builds with sequence of character which show you the time of any transaction. We use the timestamp to compare transaction duration between transaction. So we say that database timestamp is same as the real timestamp but we use these types of timestamp in different purpose. Why we use Timestamp in the database? To compare one transaction to another we use the timestamp. We count the transaction duration using timestamp . If one transaction timestamp is greater than another transaction timestamp. The priority is give
