Pux

Explain here: - Pux uses simpler data structure (indexed array) to store the patterns and flags. (In PHP internals, zend_hash_index_find is faster than zend_hash_find). - When matching routes, symfony uses a lot of function calls for each route: https://github.com/symfony/Routing/blob/master/Matcher/UrlMa... - Pux fetches the pattern from an indexed-array: https://github.com/c9s/Pux/blob/master/src/Pux/Mux.php#L189 - Pux separates static routes and dynamic routes automatically, Pux uses hash table to look up static routes without looping the whole route array. - Pux\Mux is written in C extension, method calls are faster! - With C extension, there is no class loading overhead. - Pux compiles routes to plain PHP array, the compiled routes can be loaded very fast. you don't need to call functions to register your routes before using it.
