Compressing PHP source code
Submitted by matt on Wed, 2009-06-10 09:51I've long been toying with the idea of creating a PHP compressor that would combine multiple source files, remove comments, and minimize whitespace. The point of such a compressor isn't obfuscation, but just minimizing code space for libraries. (Hypothetically, it should cut down on runtime... but I suspect the performance impact is minimal).
A few readers suggested a better way of doing this. See the update!
