PHP Code commenting disadvantages.

Recommended Posts

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.

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 ;)
