bad performance with php 5.2.0

[Sebastian 'Sickboy' Keichel]

Hi!

I'm running OmniHTTPd/2.10 with php on a Win2k SP4 machine with various php applications (for
example phpMyAdmin and cacti).
Until now I was using php 5.0.4 without problems. I updated to php 5.2.0 and now all the php
applications are running *very* slow.
A cacti page with some graphs on it took 16 sec to show up completly with php 5.0.4 now takes 50 sec
with php 5.2.0. Same with other php scipts.
I monitored php with the taskman. With php 5.0.4 some php-cgi.exe show up, using up to 99% cpu never
going to 0%. With php 5.2.0 the same php-cgi.exe show up, but using only 30% to 40% cpu, dropping
periodically to 0% cpu, then back to 30%, then back to 0% and so on.
Any hints how to solve this problem?

Best regards, Sickboy.

Have you tried running Apache web server instead? Looks to me that it's
been awhile since OmniHTTPd updated anything...

If interested I'll send you a few helpful links.

I started up PHP 5.2 on Apache and noticed it is slightly slower
than the latest version of PHP 4.x (Apache 1.3.37/Windows NT).

It might perhaps have to do with anything in the PHP.INI file?

I've also run into another problem which I'm going to ask for some
help under a new thread.

Are you running PHP as an Apache module, or as a CGI?

"Curtis" asked:

It's loaded as a module.

<httpd.conf>

# Load the php 4 module
# LoadModule php4_module "E:/php4/php4apache.dll"
# Load the php 5 module
LoadModule php5_module "E:/php5/php5apache.dll"
# ... more stuff ...
# [Whenever changing LoadModules above, update items below!]
ClearModuleList
# ... bunch of AddModule stuff ...

# Add the mod_php4.c
# AddModule mod_php4.c
AddModule mod_php5.c

</httpd.conf>

Apache seems to start up and load just as quickly as it used to,
but I noticed a slightly longer delay in presenting PHP pages under
PHP 5 (not much but enough). But perhaps it's caused because of
added extensions in PHP 5. I installed PHP 5 to get to php_pdo.dll,
php_pdo_sqlite. dll and php_sqlite.dll extensions (?).

Not yet. But I think I will.

Yeah, using this installation since php 4.

Thanks, but it's not necessary. I already installed apache on some linux and windows machines.
