Increased response time after migrating PHP5.3 to PHP5.5
Posted by tvdijck on July 29, 2014 at 2:11pm
We have just completed an update of PHP on our servers. We went from 5.3 to 5.5. We have a pretty big site with lots of nodes, blocks, views, modules and users. Everything was working "ok" (there are some area's we know we can improve) but now with php 5.5 our response time has almost tripled on our main Drupal 7 instalation. On other Drupal 7 instalation the response times went down.
Digging more in to this we found that there were 3 hooks that really caused this increase:
- init
- entity_property_info
- views_data
