Benchmarking HAML vs JADE vs HTML in PHP?


I'm interested in the performance of templating languages in PHP. I've been watching node.js tutorials and am really impressed by the use of JADE (http://jade-lang.com).



I see that JADE can be used in PHP https://github.com/everzet/jade.php and am wonderring about how it works in terms of performance.



I gather that when running for Node or Ruby the HAML or JADE is compiled when the server is started, but since (I gather) PHP loads at request-time there may be performance implications when using a templating language in PHP (then again, maybe the templates are compiled and stored in the cache).



Has anyone seen or done benchmarks of how PHP performs when using HAML, JADE, (other template languages that I don't know about) versus writing the full HTML ? What other considerations should I be aware of? (Assuming an MVC style framework)

  1. I just implemented Jade.php for one of my Zend Framework projects.

    They do cache the parsed jade files as php files, and just include them at runtime. That's what the Zend Framework does with the phtml files, i.e.

Why is this Javascript much *slower* than its jQuery equivalent?

I have a HTML list of about 500 items and a "filter" box above it. I started by using jQuery to filter the list when I typed a letter (timing code added later): $('#filter').keyup( function() { var jqStart = (new Date).getTime(); var search = $(this).val().toLowerCase(); var $list = $('ul.ablist > li'); $list.each( function() { if ( $(this).text().toLowerCase().indexOf(search) === -1 ) $(this).hide(); else $(this).show(); } ); console.log('Time: ' + ((new Date).getTime() - jqStart)); } ); However, there was a couple of seconds delay after typing each letter (particularly the first letter). So I thought it may be slightly quicker if I used plain Javascript (I read recently that jQuery's each function is particularly slow). Here's my JS equivalent: document.getElementById('filter').addEventListener( 'keyup', function () { var jsStart = (new Date).getTime()...

Is it possible to have IF statement in an Echo statement in PHP

Thanks in advance. I did look at the other questions/answers that were similar and didn't find exactly what I was looking for. I'm trying to do this, am I on the right path? echo " <div id='tabs-".$match."'> <textarea id='".$match."' name='".$match."'>". if ($COLUMN_NAME === $match) { echo $FIELD_WITH_COLUMN_NAME; } else { } ."</textarea> <script type='text/javascript'> CKEDITOR.replace( '".$match."' ); </script> </div>"; I am getting the following error message in the browser: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_IF Please let me know if this is the right way to go about nesting an IF statement inside an echo. Thank you.
