If your application spends most of its time in dense loops over thousands of entities, with elephc you can work on exactly that hot path using buffer<T>: typed, contiguous storage instead of a PHP array. On the position updates benchmark, 4000 particles over 40 steps: 60 ms with a PHP array 5.4 ms with buffer<T> About 11x faster. The math doesn't change: what changes is how the data sits in memory, with less boxing and less indirection. Not a magic wand for the whole application, but when the bottleneck is a dense loop it can make a real difference. Measured on CI, macos-15 arm64. If you have a similar case, tell me where your hot paths are. And if elephc interests you, a ⭐ on the repo would be much appreciated: https://github.com/illegalstudio/elephcillegalstudio/elephc
