I've heard good things about Symfony although I haven't used it myself. I don't know that there's any reason to suggest that it's any more or less stable than Yii, though.

I am also in process (again) of playing with frameworks. As with anything I do, I always hit the "bugs" part of a forum and not sure if you have in regards to YII > http://www.yiiframework.com/forum/index.php?board=5.0I think I'll stand on the sidelines, as I have spent too much time in the past with bugs, and I thought I would toss this one your way as it is not mentioned. I just downloaded and installed the sandbox a few days ago before I found your site and haven't had time to get going on it yet and thought I would share this. Looks a bit more stable.. :-)Regards, Jimhttp://www.symfony-project.org/ Hello Larry, and thank-you for the blog and comments. I am also in process (again) of playing with frameworks.

I definitely don't think anyone must use frameworks but they are worth considering. Thanks for your post!

LIke you stated about Larry plain PHP is faster then any framework so why would I want to use one. It just seems like more work to learn it?

Not all applications should be built using a full MVC architecture, so being able to use Zend library classes outside of the Framework for smaller projects, has been one of the biggest benefits.My point is, sometimes people put too much emphasis on response times without understanding why they are using a particular framework in the first place.
