balajiv Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 Hi All, Does having more code comments in PHP classes reduce the performance? I have a class with 8k lines of PHP code and some 2k lines of code comments. Will the execution be slower with code comments and as and when the file size grows? Thanks in advance.

taith Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 it "shouldnt" affect it that much... the php parser is usually quite fast... however... it "may" slow it down a little... besides... do you really need every line of code commented? personally... i build all my own code... therefore... i'd know it better then anyone... so... i dont put in comments... but if you build in a team... a nice LITTLE comment before each function... telling you simply what that function does... can be very nice Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/54576-php-code-commenting-disadvantages/#findComment-269891 Share on other sites More sharing options...
balajiv Posted June 8, 2007 Author Share Posted June 8, 2007 Thanks for the help. Well the comments I use for auto generating help file from TwinText. So TwinText will detect the formatted comments and will makea help file out of it.
