Right suggestion, wrong reason. I rather suspected PHP
as well, but now that I've lived and breathed the code for
a week or so, I'm quite statisfied that PHP is more than
fast enough. The present code, on the other hand, with all
due respect and admiration for Magnus's tireless efforts,
is a mess. It has no architecture or design to speak of,
and does lots of unnecessary work, including many redundant
database fetches.
I'm working on it. I'll release working snapshots of my
version as I complete things that the other developers can
test, but I'd also like to see our develop-test-install
process cleaned up before we jump headlong into anything.
