9three Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 Hey, Zend Optimizer is suppose to increase the speed of your application. What I'm wondering is how this is done? Do you develop in a certain way? Or do you just develop like normal? I've noticed that some applications will not run at all without this.

MadTechie Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 Not really, Zend Guard encodes your files that boosts their performance.. and your need Zend Optimizer to run encoded file.. so if your not using Zend Guard is doesn't do anything The Zend Optimizer is a free runtime application that enables PHP to run the files encoded by the Zend Guard. This can be freely used by anyone looking to run encoded applications Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/143483-zend-optimizer/#findComment-752688 Share on other sites More sharing options...

MadTechie Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 Nope, Infact Zend Optimizer does not contain any code caching. It does contain a code optimizer that will generally speed execution in some cases. While heavily execution encoded scripts may show a measurable speed increase, real world applications may not show any significant performance improvement as the time taken optimizing scripts may exceed the performance gains. It is useful primarily to run scripts protected by Zend Guard. EDIT: however don't get confused with Zend Platform which was Zend Accelerator and caled Zend Cache before that! Zend Platform, has a complete set of performance capabilities that includes more than a simple PHP accelerator. Features include code caching/acceleration, data caching, content (html output) caching, download optimization and off-line (asynchronous) processing capabilities that can result in significant performance improvements for most PHP applications. It also includes detailed PHP monitoring and root cause analysis support to help in tuning and debugging, session fail-over support for HA (High Availability) needs and other integration capabilities including Java integration.

Mark Baker Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 Nope, Infact Zend Optimizer does not contain any code caching. Ah! Just wondered. I use APC for code cacheing, and a custom framework, so I don't really use any of the Zend suite of products at all Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/143483-zend-optimizer/#findComment-752746 Share on other sites More sharing options...
