[phpa] Re: Important note about the current 1.2 dev release


Thank you for this quite interesting information, Nick: This "tweaks" 
parameter looks good !

I also discovered that adding these (undocumented) paramaters to php.ini 
gives incredible results:

phpa.if_you_still_find_it_is_too_slow = on
phpa.let_us_get_serious = on
phpa.really_accelerate = on
phpa.Now_I_call_this_fast = on

On my config, it brought me up to a 14143 % acceleration !

Could you believe this ? (You'd rather not, unless Nick has some more hidden 
features ;-) )
