Good analysis of Lucene implementations between PHP / Java. Nice well rounded talk :) Sat, 22 Nov 2008 11:47:10 +0000 Comment on: Index and Search, options for PHP programmers https://joind.in/talk/view/96 https://joind.in/talk/view/96 Detailed talk - but seemed to go off on a tangent about optimizing code. Would like to know more about actual php interfacing with libraries for searching and the indexing. Speaker was clear and excellent though.

My background is very low level (os/assembler/embedded), so it was plenty geeky enough for me. It wasn't actually about what I thought, though.

Its fantastic that there are people who can cover this kind of stuff for the benefit of so many developers.

In retrospect I agree the title's misleading but I was that impressed with the academic depth I quickly forgot what I might have hoped to get from it. I would love to read Zoe's dissertation in full if it's available.

Not what I expected at all. The only parts I found remotely interesting were some of the debug tools she used. However, the real let down was to have a 40 minute lecture that told me that PHP is slow compared to a compiled language like Java. Well, duurrr? Tue, 25 Nov 2008 19:18:21 +0000
