Benchmark

Can you provide benchmark information with Twig & Smarty ?

I'll get to it soon. I've found Flow compiles templates to PHP just as fast as Twig. Haven't done any comparisons with Smarty though.

Any update on this ?

OK, here's a result from a quick benchmark I just did, compiling a simple template:

Twig

'Clock time in seconds' => float 0.129316806793
'Time taken in User Mode in seconds' => float 0.080263
'Time taken in System Mode in seconds' => float 0.035529
'Total time taken in Kernel in seconds' => float 0.115792
'Memory limit in MB' => string '32' (length=2)
'Memory usage in MB' => float 2.47595214844
'Peak memory usage in MB' => float 2.88257598877
'Average server load in last minute' => float 1.04345703125

Flow

'Clock time in seconds' => float 0.0628271102905
'Time taken in User Mode in seconds' => float 0.039016
'Time taken in System Mode in seconds' => float 0.019969
'Total time taken in Kernel in seconds' => float 0.058985
'Memory limit in MB' => string '32' (length=2)
'Memory usage in MB' => float 1.13677978516
'Peak memory usage in MB' => float 1.51390838623
'Average server load in last minute' => float 0.87939453125

I used a very simple template that outputs two variables and iterates over an array.
