Introduction

This is a fully automated benchmark suite for comparing the performance of any PHP releases or branches. The framework is heavily inspired by Intel's work from quite a few years ago: https://01.org/node/3774.

Results

You can find the benchmark results here.

Install

You can simply download or clone this repository. You can also install it via Composer by running the command below:

$ composer require kocsismate/php-version-benchmarks:dev-main

Usage

Configuration

All the configuration of the benchmark is done via .ini files in the config directory. By default, a few templates are bundled with the benchmark (having .ini.dist extension in their names). Feel free to rename them by removing the .dist suffix in order to take advantage of them.

Usage with Docker

As a prerequisite, you need the following:

a UNIX system (Linux, Mac)
git
a recent version of Docker

Run the following command to execute the benchmark suite locally:

./benchmark.sh run local

Usage on AWS EC2

As a prerequisite, you need the following:

a UNIX system (Linux, Mac)
git
Terraform

Then you have to create the necessary AWS-related config file by copying the aws.tfvars.dist to aws.tfvars in the build/infrastructure/config/aws.tfvars.dist directory:

cp build/infrastructure/config/aws.tfvars.dist build/infrastructure/config/aws.tfvars

Then, you need to override some values in it:

access_key: the access key of your AWS account
secret_key: the secret access key of your AWS account
region: it is "eu-central-1" by default, but you should choose the closest one to your area

Now, you are ready to go:

./benchmark.sh run aws
