Ruby slower php? No longer!
In one article that was not discussed long ago , one of the reasons for switching from Ruby to PHP was that “PHP is IT'S SMALL AND FAST” (PHP is small and fast).
Is it so? Judging by the data of one authoritative site in this area - no longer.
Comparison of the results of the passage of the standard test suite PHP and Ruby Core 1.9.0 speaks for itself.
Conclusion - the performance of PHP and Ruby Core 1.9.0 are approximately equal (somewhere faster than Ruby, somewhere PHP).
As an explanation, the current stable version of Ruby 1.8.6, version 1.9.0 (with a rewritten and optimized kernel) will officially be released at the end of December 2007 (but the test release has been available for quite some time - it was used for testing).
For reference, a comparison of the performance of PHP and Ruby 1.8.6 (versions with the old kernel)
Progress is visible to the naked eye! :)
