What Version Of Php Are You Running, And When Do You Think You'll Upgrade To Php 7?

[Paul]

PHP 7 is expected to be released officially toward the end of the year, and it is fast - http://www.reddit.com/r/PHP/comments/305ck6/real_world_php_70_benchmarks/

 

We want to know what version of PHP you are running and when you plan to upgrade to PHP 7.

It is very much faster. Cody will correct me if I'm wrong, but we were seeing nearly 10x speed increase on PHP 7 for some unit tests. Because if the performance of PHP 7, I suspect it will have a much higher/faster adoption rate than past versions.

Blesta is very happy on PHP 5.6 + ZendOpcache on MariaDB 10.0.x backend.

 

I selected 3-6 months on an upgrade timeline simply to allow some of the intial bugs to be worked out and allow time for internal testing before an upgrade.  I'd start testing on it immediately but the production update would depend on stability and bugs.

Same here, I'll need at least a couple months to test and verify that there are no real issues with any of my stuff before upgrading.  It is looking like it will be amazing though.
