Description:
------------
When compiling with --with-imap (implies --with-imap-ssl and --with-kerberos because of Debian c-client) in PHP5.2.1RC3 and up (including latest CVS snap) the Zend/bench.php takes 23 seconds to complete.
If --with-imap --with-imap-ssl are omitted , the bench.php takes 13 seconds. 
Using --with-kerberos or not has no performance impact. 

Other PHP versions (5.1.6, 5.2.0) take also around 13 seconds to complete. 

The benchmark is executed like this:

sapi/cli/php -n -f Zend/bech.php

I can give strace/gdb output on request. 

Reproduce code:
---------------
./configure '--with-mysql=/usr' '--with-gettext' '--with-gd' '--with-zlib-dir=/usr' '--with-apxs2=/usr/bin/apxs2' --with-dom --with-jpeg-dir=/usr/lib --disable-ipv6  --with-xsl --with-tidy --with-ldap --with-mysqli --without-sqlite --disable-pdo --disable-xmlreader --disable-xmlwriter --disable-spl --enable-maintainer-zts --with-freetype-dir --with-kerberos --with-imap --with-imap-ssl



 


Expected result:
----------------
I expect the benchmark to complete in around 13 seconds, just like with 5.2.0

It means that c-client initialization takes some time.
We can't fix c-client, though.
 [2007-02-07 10:56 UTC] jaspersl at xs4all dot nl 
Ok, so how come 5.2.0 (compiled with the same settings & compiler) and previous versions doesn't suffer from it?

The Zend/bech.php doesn't seem to doing anything with the c-client. If it takes time to _initialize_ it, it wouldn't account for the fact that the fibo() takes twice as long.

Cannot reproduce.

I had this problem in Zenserver a while back, so I split the php package into a larger and faster, and a smaller and lighter one. I think it was on 5.2.x. I hadn't tested it in ages, but did note that with IMAP or not on 5.3.1, I had no regression in Drupal page loading times. Unless the regression is there whether it's enabled or not ;-).

This might be fixed, but I definitely had the same issue.

Thanks for reporting this.
