I just released Amfphp 2.2. Profiler! The main feature is a performance profiler. The idea behind these new features is to help you better understand how your server shall perform live, and to give you easy access to the information you need to eliminate bottlenecks and fine-tune performance.
Hacking AMF Objects

Baguette AMF, AmfPHP at the Speed of Light
AMF is a very compact binary format. It is however difficult to parse. AmfPHP on its own does a good job, but it takes time, as it is written in PHP. Baguette AMF is written in C, and therefore enjoys native performance. This means up to 20 times faster conversion times. This is good for […]
