The PHP version that comes with Raspbian is the 5.4.45 at the time I’m writing this. Recently I’ve installed OwnCloud 8.2.2, which recommends PHP 5.6 or newer, so, I decided to compile a newer version by myself. Indeed I tried with a couple of newer versions: 5.6.18 and 7.0.3, both with php-fpm support.
After compiling, configuring and running both versions as separated php-fpm sockets, I runned this benchmark script to compare them, and these were the results:

It’s awesome, isn’t it? 🙂
