My 1st PHP OOP site, the performance seems slow.

Hi

I have just built my 1st php site using objects but it seems to be much slower than usual sites I've built.

I've used __autoload to load classes, and foreach a lot more as opposed to while loops are these things slow? Or could it just be thats its using a lot more memory by holding arrays of objects compared to just records of mysql results.

I found it better to code with OOP but if its going to be slower I'm not sure I can continue this way.

Any ideas will be apprieciated.

Thanks

I don't see anything wrong.

All things being equal (which they seldom are), OOP might tend to add a little overhead; but if you are seeing significant performance problems, my first thought would be there is something else other than the simple fact of using classes and objects that is the problem.
