Drupal is written in PHP but I still love it

My d.o profile says that I'm a 3 years old drupaler, and I love it. From my personal vision, God blessed me a lot since I'm working with Drupal. Not only in my job, also had the wonderful opportunity to meet so nice people, and visit 3 new countries in just one year!

What about PHP? well..., we have a trading agreement :D

Drupal is becoming more attractive for bigger projects, unfavorably there exists an issue increasing: The Performance. Likewise I consider that this is not due to Drupal design, or its implementation, it occurs because IMHO PHP is slow.

Now, FLOSS is about freedom right? well, I want to keep working with Drupal forever and be free of PHP. Perhaps some day! who knows :)

Blessings.

Do you really think that the drupal bottleneck is the PHP performance?
Don't you think that the Drupal design doesn't help to the performance? What about the number of queries that a page requires? what about the number of modules that a big proyect requires?

Drupal is a great CMS but it is not fast and it is not due PHP, the database bottleneck is a bigger issue.

Seems like you don't know that much about it
