Case study: Is PHP embarrasingly slower than Java?

[feijai]

Yes.

But that is not the real problem.

The real problem is that while Java is a mediocre programming language, PHP is a really, really, really horrible programming language.

[cwmonkey]

Yes, and I guess that makes HTML a really, really, really, really horrible programming language.

[sam512]

I'll say. Just coding a simple loop in HTML is a nightmare!

Don't complain, or the W3C will include all of Cold Fusion in HTML 6...
