Best you should edit the blog name title Wade Arnold » 10X Zend Amf Performance enhancements — please test! to something more generic for your content you make. I enjoyed the blog post even sononetheless.

Hi Wade,

First of all great work on Zend AMF server, very nice way to integrate with PHP and a standard PHP library.

I have come across 3 bugs in Zend AMF Server (1 dealing with sending info via raw Net Connection in Flash CS3/CS4/CS5 and the other 2 dealing with Authentication/Acl handling). Is there a bug reporting database I can submit these too or notify someone about (it took me hours to figure out what was going wrong so it might be nice for others to not endure that .

Cheers!

Can anyone point me in the right direction of using Zend AMF authentication by passing credentials to the gateway through NetConnection.addHeader?

So far I am able to create my connection and pass what I believe setCredentials used to do:
nc.addHeader(“Credentials”, false, {userid: “myuser”, password: “mypass”});

But then within the Zend_Amf_Server class trying to access the credentials is incorrect:
$headers[Zend_Amf_Constants::CREDENTIALS_HEADER]->userid (this does not get the correct header information from the above addHeader command)

If you change it to:
$headers[0]->data->userid (this does get ‘myuser’ from the header)

So what is the deal? Is this a bug within the Zend_Amf_Server class? Or am I doing something wrong?

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.

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.
Cordially

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)
