This talk will look at strategies to improve the performance of a Zend Framework 1 application. We'll start with measuring the performance and then provide some ideas on how to improve the performance.
Starting with, class loading, we'll then walk through Zend_Db's performance and then cast our eyes over the view to improve performance there. We'll then take a look at other potential bottlenecks in typical Zend Framework code and consider how what you need to do to improve your application's performance.
