Parsing is done ahead of time, so it is in fact more or less free. The plus operator also works on arrays.

Facebook's "HipHop" PHP translator Posted Feb 3, 2010 15:18 UTC (Wed) by dskoll (subscriber, #1630) [Link] Parsing is done ahead of time, so it is in fact more or less free. Eh? Not in standard PHP. Parsing is free only if you're using an opcode cache like APC or similar. The plus operator also works on arrays. So it does. Still, it's relatively restricted. It doesn't work on strings or objects.

I think it can be assumed a site dealing with "400 billion PHP-based page
views every month" is using an opcode cache already.
