The Definitive PHP 5.6, 7.0, 7.1, 7.2 & 7.3 Benchmarks (2019)

Everything Else

Every yr we liberate our in-depth efficiency benchmarks throughout more than a few platforms to look how other variations of PHP stack up in opposition to each and every different. This time we once more went all out and benchmarked 5 other PHP variations throughout 16 other platforms/configurations; together with WordPress (each 4.9 and 5.0), Drupal, Joomla!, Laravel, Symfony, and lots of extra. We additionally examined widespread ecommerce answers comparable to WooCommerce, Simple Virtual Downloads, Magento, Grav CMS, and October CMS.

We’re at all times encouraging WordPress customers to make the most of the most recent supported versions of PHP. No longer best are they extra protected, however they provide further efficiency enhancements. We aren’t speaking as regards to WordPress both, this true for probably the most section throughout all platforms. We’ll display you these days how PHP 7.3 knocks the socks off of the whole thing we put it in opposition to! ?

So Lengthy HHVM, 2019 Is the 12 months of PHP

PHP is an open-source, server-side scripting and programming language that’s essentially used for internet construction. The majority of the core WordPress device is written in PHP, which makes PHP an important language for the WordPress group.

In line with W3Techs, PHP is utilized by over 78% of all the websites who use a server-side programming language. Some would possibly argue that PHP is dead. However even if builders love to state this, PHP is alive, sooner, and higher than ever.

In our 2016 benchmarks, HHVM was once the transparent winner in relation to efficiency when it got here to working WordPress. HHVM was once created by way of the staff over Fb. It’s a machine that makes use of just-in-time (JIT) compilation to transform PHP code right into a system language to ascertain a synergy between the PHP code and the underlying {hardware} that runs it. We used to provide HHVM at Kinsta as any other selection, because of the truth that PHP wasn’t maintaining in relation to enhancements.

Then again, in our 2017 benchmarks, PHP 7.2 took a slight lead throughout virtually all platforms, beating out HHVM for the primary time (the extra requests the simpler):

  • WordPress 4.9.4 PHP 7.2 benchmark: 148.80 req/sec ?
  • WordPress 4.9.4 HHVM benchmark: 144.76 req/sec
  • WordPress 4.9.4 + WooCommerce 3.3.1 PHP 7.2 benchmark: 92.60 req/sec ?
  • WordPress 4.9.4 + WooCommerce 3.3.1 HHVM benchmark: 69.58 req/sec

Subsequently, as of August twenty eighth, 2018 Kinsta stopped providing HHVM. One, as it’s now not a strong possibility for WordPress, and 2nd as it no longer supports PHP as of v3.30. You’ll learn extra about this in our farewell to HHVM.

That is in truth nice information for builders and end-users alike because it way extra of a focal point again on PHP and offering sooner web pages and internet products and services for everybody. Subsequently, this yr’s benchmarks are all about PHP!

Under you’ll get to look how the latest model, PHP 7.3 (launched on December sixth, 2018) plays, in addition to WordPress 5.0 (satirically additionally launched on December sixth, 2018).

PHP Benchmarks (2019)

For each and every check, we used the most recent model of each and every platform and benchmarked the house web page for a minute with 15 concurrent customers. Under are the main points of our check atmosphere.

  • Device used: 8x Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU @ 2.20GHz (Powered by way of Google Cloud Platform and working in an remoted container)
  • OS: Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS (Bionic Beaver)
  • Docker Stack: Debian 9, Nginx 1.15.7, MariaDB 10.3.11
  • PHP Model: 5.6, 7.0, 7.1, 7.2, 7.3
  • Web page Caching: Disabled on all configurations and platforms.
  • OPCache: For WordPress, Joomla, and Drupal, we used the legit Docker symbol and we created our personal for PHP 7.3 (Dockerfile). For the remaining we used the similar symbol setup with the OPcache enabled the use of the next recommended php.ini settings, aside from for the opcache.max_accelerated_files worth which was once higher from 4,000 to 50,000.
opcache.memory_consumption=128
opcache.interned_strings_buffer=8
opcache.max_accelerated_files=50000
opcache.revalidate_freq=60
opcache.fast_shutdown=1
opcache.enable_cli=1

OPcache improves PHP efficiency by way of storing precompiled script bytecode in shared reminiscence, thereby getting rid of the desire for PHP to load and parse scripts on each and every request.

The exams have been carried out by way of Thoriq Firdaus a WordPress contributor and fortify engineer right here at Kinsta. He’s contributed to WordPress Core and Translation Editor for WordPress Indonesia.
