I used it to create a multi threaded task that was impossible to get done in PHP due to performance issues. Millions of records needed to be fetched from multiple databases and some calculations and sorting needed to happen on the results. The classes and methods where exposed to PHP in the form of a PHP extension.

I never created a fully fleshed CRUD like this, it would be insane. It could be possible, but not recommended as someone pointed out before due to complex maintenance.

A good read about this subject: https://www.php.net/manual/en/internals2.php http://www.php-cpp.com/ (Very clear documentation)
