PHP Execution Time

[andytwiz]

Hi,

I have a very complicated site with a lot of PHP and mySQL code which I've redesigned to reduce overhead.

This site is recieves a lot of hits.

The total time to process a page is about 0.3 seconds on the current server. Is this excessive?

Sounds reasonable if you have quite a few sql queries and a reasonably large page. If you are worried about processing overhead and can't cut it down by optimising your code or queries you could look into a caching solution (mmturk, zend)... or if you are using a template engine look into a page caching version (smarty) so the template doesn't have to be fully rebuilt each time a user accesses the page (can cut down significantly on processing time).
