There are currently over 25 Million websites powered by PHP. If you had the time (and patience, nevermind the means) to check all of them, you would most certainly find that most use PHP in conjunction with a MySQL Database. The reasons for this is simple: they work extremely well together, they are relatively simple to integrate and they are flexible. But in PHP's flexibility lies its greatest weakness. Just because it allows you to do almost anything you like in just about any way you like, does not mean that you are code is performing at it's best. If it has not happened to you already, the day will come that you start to ask yourself why your script is so slow, even on localhost! Until you properly understand what happens in the background--on the server--while your code is being processed, you will not have the tools to eliminate slow server responses. I am not, however, talking about the actual machine process that happens on the server. I am simply talking about what happens when you type echo, or print, or foreach. What are you telling PHP to do? Just before we actually get into it, a little note: This article assumes a basic level of understanding of PHP and MYSQL. We will not be rooting through the basics of coding before getting to our points. However, I will try to keep things as simple as possible as this topic is relative to developers of all levels. PHP: Print, Echo, Strings, Variables and Loops You will have undoubtably heard of the cardinal rule regarding echo vs. print. Certainly, I dont think any discussion on server resources would be complete without it. Its simple: print $variable; is slower than echo $variable; However, this difference is neglegible. My own script timer could not accurately time one faster than the other in a script that printed a simple string ten thousand times.

The OLPC XO has been credited for the whole idea of building small and cheap computers, but from the consumer point of view, the Asus Eee PC 701 was the mini laptop that started the whole netbook trend. Moreover, it ran Linux, even if it was a rather dumbed-down version of Xandros. It was only later that Asus released a model with Windows XP; as more manufacturers began to join in it soon became apparent Windows XP Home was set to take over as the main operating system for netbooks. Whether this was due to actual consumer demand or if it was simply a move from Microsoft to get in on a thriving market is a valid question. At any rate, the Linux distros that shipped with early netbooks where no doubt much better suited for the rather mediocre hardware in the cheap small laptops. Sadly, new models with Linux pre-installed are few and far between. If it wasn’t for Dell and a few other manufacturers, Linux on new netbooks would be all but dead.But just because it is not easy to get hold of a new mini laptop with Linux pre-installed, it doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t throw XP on the scrapheap where it belongs and install a shiny new Linux distribution. Linux is still a great choice for netbooks. Windows XP and 7 – or even worse Windows Vista – are all too high on resources for the rather weak Atom processor, which is still the most common netbook CPU and hasn’t improved much performance-wise between the first and second generation. A positive development for Linux netbook fans, however, is MeeGo – a merger between Intel-supported Moblin and Nokia’s Maemo initiative. It is developed specifically with less powerful hardware in mind. Version 1.0 is already available, and supports lots of popular netbooks. |
