    Hi,

    If a task can be performed thru both shell script and php script, which one we should choose for performance reason?

    which one use the least resources and executes faster?

    I believe it should be shell script which is faster, because, the use of php scirpt needs another interpreter(in this case php) other than shell itself..

    what do you think?

    I agree - the shell script should be faster
