[Feature] Use almost any PHP fw or app with Workerman

[joanhey]

Hi Walkor,

I was using a lib internally for more than 2 years, for my legacy apps to run with Workerman v3.5. https://github.com/joanhey/AdapterMan

This week I tested with frameworks, and It's working perfectly, without touch 1 line of code in the fw or app.

We only need an small change to the Front Controller and PHP 8 as minimum.

Tested with:

• Symfony
• Laravel
• Yii2
• Slim
• KumbiaPHP
• ...

Now I'm creating PRs in the Techempower benchmark. https://github.com/TechEmpower/FrameworkBenchmarks/pull/7627 https://github.com/TechEmpower/FrameworkBenchmarks/pull/7626 Later I will push Slim and more fws.

I think that this lib will be useful for more people.

If time permits, I'll try to add documentation and upgrade to Workerman v4

[walkor]

It looks amazing. I thought it was impossible to finish the work, but you solved it easily. Thank you so much for your efforts. 👍

[joanhey]

Still fixing small details with the session.

The blog work without any problem. Only the admin area, have small problems with the sessions.

Symfony demo with Workerman, an user authenticated :

[joanhey]

Laravel Orchid admin panel with Workerman, with Laravel the login is working

Drupal with Workerman, but still fail the login with symfony.

[joanhey]

Laravel and Symfony login working !!!

[walkor]

Now I'll create a docker with the symfony-demo. In port 8080 with Workerman and in 8081 with php-fpm.

[joanhey]

Symfony initialization 0ms. And half time per request, once loaded the first time.

[joanhey]

Working with CakePHP too

[joanhey]

The first results from the bench Without touch a line of code and full ORM.

Laravel 8

Fw	Plaintext	Json	Single query	Multiple query	Updates	Fortunes
Laravel	14,799	14,770	9,263	3,247	1,452	8,354
Laravel Roadrunner	482	478	474	375	359	472
Laravel Swoole	38,824	37,439	21,687	3,958	1,588	16,035
Laravel Laravel s	54,617	49,372	23,677	2,917	1,255	16,696
Laravel Workerman	103,004	99,891	46,001	5,828	1,666	27,158
Laravel with Workerman % gain	596.02%	576.31%	396.61%	79.489%	14.738%	225.09%

In 2 days Symfony. The next week: Laravel 9, Lumen 9, Cakephp and Slim.

[walkor]

Very good. It seems that the performance improvement is significant. 👍

[joanhey]

Yes, it's very significant. And here the results are bad, for using the very slow Laravel ORM.

The next week, we will see the Slim with raw db and optimized db for workerman.

[joanhey]

I don't know any PHP ORM optimised for persistent apps.

[joanhey]

The latency is really good !!

And later, we will check the memory used. Kumbiaphp use half the memory using Workerman. We will have better numbers with other fws.

[joanhey]

Symfony 6

700% faster in the Fortunes

Latency

Fw	Plaintext	Json	Single query	Multiple query	Updates	Fortunes
Symfony	38,231	37,557	12,578	10,741	3,420	10,741
Symfony Workerman	210,796	197,059	107,050	13,401	4,062	71,092

https://github.com/joanhey/AdapterMan#performance-bench :)

[joanhey]

With CakePHP we have worst results with Workerman. :( I'll investigate if it's an error or directly a problem with CakePHP

[joanhey]

I think that I found the problem, It's related to Cakephp. Changes passed, and in 7 days we have the new results. https://github.com/TechEmpower/FrameworkBenchmarks/pull/7680

Looking the cakephp bootstrap, it check if is CLI SAPI, and load a cli bootstrap.

[joanhey]

Laravel 9 have the same numbers than version 8.

Lumen 9

Fw	Plaintext	Json	Single query	Multiple query	Updates	Fortunes
Lumen	18,998	18,616	10,791	3,496	1,461	9,223
Lumen Swoole	44,861	43,598	24,255	4,178	1,599	16,854
Lumen Laravel s	93,335	82,745	31,567	3,030	1,282	21,130
Lumen Workerman	185,126	177,667	58,729	5,857	1,662	31,430

Very similar numbers to Laravel.

[joanhey]

Trying now with Codeigniter4

Performance info

Slim3 vs Slim4 without ORM

Slim 4 Workerman pgsql *		102,926	19,637	92,752	14,875

• Without ORM and db class optimized for Workerman

[joanhey]

CakePHP still slower. Asking for help in the Cakephp slack.

[joanhey]

I'm updating all fw to php 8.2, in the bencmark.

But Workerman 3.5 have problems with dynamic properties. And fail in some frameworks.

Can we move it from 3.5 to v4, as another protocol ? So we also could optimize it for php 7.

[joanhey]

In the mean time, you or me can add #[\AllowDynamicProperties] To the Worker class and Connection interface.

Done

[joanhey]

Walkor, open a twitter for Workerman (and Webman).

[walkor]

Hi joanhey, here are the twitter accounts.

[joanhey]

Lumen v9 600% faster

[walkor]

Great 👍
