Symfony 2.0 Reloaded

Posted by teejay on February 18, 2010

Benchmark Results have been present when a new framework is being presented, here's what Symfony 2.0 has:

Benchmark Results

"Hello World" Application

For the "Hello World" application, the Symfony 2.0 is about:

  • 20% faster than Solar 1.0.0beta3
  • 60% faster than Lithium 0.6
  • 75% faster than Yii 1.1.1
  • 2 times faster than symfony 1.4.2
  • 3.5 times faster than Zend 1.10
  • 5.5 times faster than CakePHP 1.2.6
  • 69 times faster than Flow3 1.0.0alpha7

""Product" Application

For the "Product" application, Symfony 2.0 is about:

  • 50% faster than Yii 1.1.1
  • 2 times faster than Solar 1.0.0beta3
  • 2.5 times faster than symfony 1.4.2
  • 3 times faster than Zend 1.10
  • 4 times faster than Lithium 0.6
  • 6 times faster than CakePHP 1.2.6
  • 60 times faster than Flow3 1.0.0alpha7

To tell you the truth, the "product" application is pretty much worth the "Hello World" Application. There are far too many situations in the real world to test

Another problem I have is that most hosts don't support 5.3 and above, it could be hard to try it out on personal projects

I wonder how it benchmarks against CodeIgniter.

I really doubt it could be faster than CodeIgniter since CodeIgniter is a ‘whitebox’ framework. Symfony is a much much larger framework with tons of functionality out of the box.
