A typical "do this instead of this".
Real performance does not come from switching your prints to echoes or using ++$a instead of $a++. You should really use the ones you prefer and which are better for the case. Sometimes you need to do post-increment and sometimes pre-increment. If you do it vice versa it becomes more complicated.
Use optimizers, cache static content, make a fast HTML template system, etc and don't try to switch all double quotes to single quotes.
Btw, I once tested switching all double quotes to single quotes. I used WordPress (not 2.7) and I replaced all quotes to single ones. It was not a straight forward replacement, but anyway, I did not notice anything. The random microtime change will hide the performance "gain" I got.

they forgot to add "switch to assembly" ...
I think such "optimization tips" are stupid, nano-optimizations that does not matter

Oh well I guess you are right.
By the way, the site is about optimization so why does it have security related topics?!

#24 An alternative caching technique when you have pages that don’t change too frequently is to cache the HTML output of your PHP pages. Try Smarty or Cache Lite. [Citation]
#33 Don’t bother using complex template systems such as Smarty, use the one that’s included in PHP already, see ob_get_contents and extract, and simply pull the data from your database. [Citation]
