Hi,
on February 5th, you talked about a performance improvment patch on the next mini release of Zend but on the 1.10.1 no scent of this patch … I’ve no other way to switch to AMFPhP solution … I really regret choosing ZendAMF for an important enterprise solution because I didn’t realize that the performance were so bad …

Hi Wade,
your performance patch for Zend AMF is a decision criteria in my working project to make a choice between keeping ZendAMF and patch it or switch my project to AMFPhP. I’m aware of the fact that you must have a lot of other activities but your answer for the date of the next release is very important for my technical choices …

Cordially.

Comment on Passing the AMFPHP torch by Josh Chernoff

@Wade, replay to “You will soon find out that people appreciate open source by how much they pay for it. All the best!”

I don’t agree with that at all. My views are that if you don’t like what your doing, don’t do it. In contrast to that you can all ways tell when some one is passionate about some thing they do. That was something that I always admired about Patrick’s work.

I’m sure your a really nice guy and do great work for Zend, but I never got the impression that you liked working on AMFPHP. I’m glad you kept amfphp alive and even more glad that you handed it over to people who are passionate about it. Just as Ariel said, you could have let it die any time you wanted to. I realize that I have been a hypocrite by being as critical of your efforts yet at the same time not contributing my self. I hope to change that soon. I think I can speak for any one who has been critical of you efforts by saying that it was disappointing to see the progression that amfphp had with Patrick’s efforts then to see that development progression drop off almost completely when handed over to you. But at the same time I’m sure most of us understand circumstance and that you tried to do what you can.

Best of Luck at Zend, keep on creating.
- Josh C

Hi Wade,
I actually missed this post, so better late than never. Thanks for the work on AMFPHP and the support you gave me when I joined AMFPHP. I’m hearing some bad words about you, and I’d like to point out to anyone reading that if you really had just wanted Zend AMF to move forward and let AMFPHP die, you could have just ignored me, which you didn’t.
I’m sure there are bridges to be built between the two projects, as soon as the excitement dies down I hope we’ll get the occasion to discuss them.
bye
Ariel

Comment on ZF 1.8.4 breaks addDirectory() by Arend

I also still have this problem which keeps me from updating from 1.8.2. No matter what version I try (just tested 1.10) I still can’t get past this “Class com_example_project_class does not exist error”.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

There is a new patch coming this weekend when I get done with the J.O.B. this week. We will have the performance patch into the next mini release.

What’s the actual status of this performance bug correction ? I’ve try to deploy the zip files on a 1.10 version of zend amf and I’ve also have the null return problem … do I have to switch zend amf to amfphp if I want real performances ? Thank you for your help.

I’ve patch together something that works for me (1.10 stable):

Huge thanks for these patches btw, it makes a world of difference.

Used patches:
Amf.Combined-NoObjectsByRef.diff (made it much faster for me)
Amf.perform.ref-writeString.diff (only slightly faster)
