    Was trying to find benchmarks comparing the alpha versions of PHP 5.6 to 5.5, and I couldn't find any, so I ran some myself.

    Nothing really crazy to call home about... In my benchmarking tests PHP 5.6.0 alpha 2 is ~3.5% faster than 5.5.9.

    Used the standard bench.php and micro_bench.php benchmarking scripts.

    this might be because you are using php with apc built in, and as per my understanding, php 5.6 has apc built in , as compared to php 5.5 < which require apc to be added as a module.

    If you are referring to Zend OPcache, it's built in to both 5.6 and 5.5.
