PHP TS is slightly slower than PHP NTS but not in a significant
manner. However the stability of the ISAPI may affect your sites much
more than the TS vs NTS delta. Many crashes have worst side effects
than slowdowns.

Hi,

Where can wincache.dll be downloaded?

Any progress on the 1.5 year project to restore windows pecl?


From: Venkat Raman Don on
WINCACHE DLL can be downloaded from http://www.iis.net/expand/WinCacheForPhp. The links here will take you to source forge actually. The download is available for both PHP5.2 as well as PHP5.3 NTS version. Please chose what is appropriate for you.

Most of the extension can be downloaded from http://downloads.php.net/pierre/.

Thanks,
Don.

I have seen this assertion twice now (Previously only from Zend). Please
let me know where I can find the announcement to this effect, as I can
find no mention of this at http://php.net/migration53,
http://php.net/releases/5_3_0.php,
or in the change logs.

The ISAPI is not available anymore in php 5.3 or later.
