The problem with PHP was, last I checked, it had to parse all the PHP code for every web request, including the object initialization, and run it all anew. I'm not sure that objects persist well across HTTP requests (but maybe they do now, PHP has probably improved).

Still, I believe that compiled languages are inherently better for this kind of thing. We write all kinds of desktop apps in C/C++, why shouldn't web apps that have hundreds of simultaneous users?

Use APC to cache your compiled PHP code ... makes things run much faster. http://pecl.php.net/package/APC
