Zone Alarm & Script Timing
Posted: Tue Apr 01, 2003 4:09 pm
Just discovered that Zone Alarm really slows down the time it takes for scripts to run on my local server (apache/win98).
I was feeling depressed that a discussion forum I'd written was a bit slow (code was taking over 1s for most pages). Then I turned off ZA and - yeehah! - scripts are executing in a few hundredths of a second, four or five times faster.
Thought that was worth mentioning for anyone else using microtime() to check the efficiency of new scripts.
