PHP, 150x Faster still Legacy Friendly
Your PHP scripts are constantly waiting for the database, HTTP requests, or files. Solutions exist, but often require rewriting code.
In this talk, I will show you how to push PHP to its limits running scripts 150x faster. The ingredients: FrankenPHP threads, Swow coroutines, PHP Generators, a sprinkle of PHP, and a dash of Go to orchestrate it all. This approach works for any PHP code both legacy and new, including blocking I/O.
