Easy example. Have they fixed file upload behavior yet? Do they store the entire file in memory by default instead of chunking it and storing it as it comes in?
If not it’s like the worst memory usage of any language possible.
If you have to go change the php.ini to adjust file upload sizes, it’s not really moving forward and is decades behind other languages.
In congested cities if you don’t enter the intersection when its not completely clear then you’ll have to wait ~40 minutes for a chance to go across. Waymo’s riders have that as one of the biggest frustrations. Then theres a gridlock behind them.
There’s no winning with cars.
For a single new problem that hasn’t yet been automated I use CLI utilities to collect information to use to write code for a new automation.
I use web UIs to monitor metrics (grafana) and write custom exporters to collect metrics that can show performance or potential issues and logs.
Other languages behind reverse proxies from apache httpd or nginx do not have the same memory hit. You can still blame php. Not my fault they tied their language to the webserver in a way that uses tons of extra memory.
