<h1>Benchmark 1: variable replacement</h1>
<p>About 1MB data is created, parsed and displayed ... this might take a while. In this test we have a 10kb <a href="fastTemplate/test_1_1.html">text file</a> which has 21 variable in it. Different amount of variables is set in template engine, we measure how fast it can parse this text. If you choose to look at the source code of this site, you will find this text very often, because a template class is slower if it actually has to display the text. I put it in "<!-- -->" so it is not displayed here.</p>

<p>To show the speed of template engines, I integrated the PHP heredoc syntax.</p>
<p>Why is ETS so fast? ETS does not work with <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Object-oriented_programming" target="_blank">OOP</a>. It uses functions not methods to exchange data between the PHP script and the template. I can only assume this different aproach to programming is a reason for the high performance.</p>
<p>Why are Smarty and <a href="/" target="_blank">vlibTemplate</a> so fast? Smarty and <a href="/" target="_blank">vlibTemplate</a> are using <b>compiled templates</b>. E.g. Smarty PHP files are using fast "for ... endfor;" and "echo" statements. Since this PHP file is only changed if the template is changed, this is extremly fast <b>and it does not matter if the (mysql)data is changed</b>. This makes Smarty the fastes template engine available on Windows. <a href="/" target="_blank">vlibTemplate</a> is faster than Smarty on most Linux servers I tested. But that may change, since Smarty is released more often than vLIB.</p>
<p>If you do not have the time to take a deeper look into Smarty, ETS or other <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template_engine" target="_blank">template engines</a> or <a href="/" target="_blank">vlibTemplate</a> I suggest you use <a href="/" target="_blank">vlibTemplate</a>. In my humble opinion vLIB (<a href="/docs/multihtml/vlibtemplate/table_of_content.html" target="_blank">vlibTemplate</a>, <a href="/docs/multihtml/vlibdate/table_of_content.html" target="_blank">vlibDate</a>, <a href="/docs/multihtml/vlibmimemail/table_of_content.html" target="_blank">vlibMimeMail</a>) is one of the best packages (3 classes) I have ever worked with.</p>
