Very fast worker-based HTTP Request dispatching for ZF2 that re-uses bootstrapped applications

OcraHopHop - Worker thread HTTP response dispatching for ZF2

OcraHopHop is a project aimed at reducing latency and resources used by a ZF2 Application while dispatching an HTTP Request., _(*1)

Installation

The recommended way to install ocramius/ocra-hop-hop is through composer:, _(*2)

{
    "require": {
        "ocramius/ocra-hop-hop": "dev-master@dev"
    }
}

Working concept

The concept behind OCraHopHop is simple, and can be summarized in following pseudo code:, _(*3)

init_autoload();
init_config();
// ...
init_application();

while ($request = get_http_request()) {
    $application->serve($request);
}

The idea is to avoid initialization logic by re-using resources across multiple requests., _(*4)

PHP was thought for share-nothing architectures, but for greater and more complex applications, such an approach is necessary., _(*5)

If you already know FastCGI, this is what it is all about., _(*6)

Usage

1. Replace your public/index.php with the examples/zf2-server.php that you can find in OcraHopHop.
2. Copy examples/zf2-worker.php to your public/ dir
3. Open a terminal, cd to your public/ dir and run php zf2-worker.php
4. Run siege or ab -k against your ZF application
5. ...?
6. Profit!
