Description:
------------
Currently PHP's FastCGI's code just keeps php loaded while the script is executed over and over every time.

I'm proposing a system where fastcgi could be natively used by the php script. Like how fastcgi is used in perl, or C.

The code could possibly look something like this:
------------------
#!/usr/bin/php-fastcgi
<?php
do_init();
while(fastcgi_next_request() != null) {
    do_request_stuff();
}
do_shutdown();
?>
------------------

This would allow large scripts that load lots of data to keep them loaded and serve many requests.

This would be very advantagous for performance. The script itself would look like a fastcgi script to the server. Not the php executable. So you wouldn't be able to use the apache Action directive. You'd just need to have the hash-bang in every php file.

I'm not familiar enough with php's sapi, nor fastcgi. But from what I know it should be possible if you don't use treat the php _script_ as a cgi and use the hash-bang on every file.

Thanks,
James Harr

imho this should be implemented as an php-extension.
then the user would have to run the script via php-cli

Would it be possible to implement this easily through an extension? It'd probably be a good idea to work on this in PHP5 since PHP5 is almost out and it woudl be easier to integrate.

Who's interested in this?

PHP's shared-nothing architecture isn't going to change any time soon.

If you want performance, use an opcache.
