Post explaining why objects often use less memory than arrays (in PHP)

Why objects (usually) use less memory than arrays in PHP

This is just a small post in response to [this tweet][tweet] by Julien Pauli (who by the way is the release manager for PHP 5.5). In the tweet he claims that objects use more memory than arrays in PHP. Even though it can be like that, it's not true in most cases. (Note: This only applies to PHP 5.4 or newer.)

The reason why it's easy to assume that objects are larger than arrays is because objects can be seen as an array of properties and a bit of additional information (like the class it belongs to). And as array + additional info > array it obviously follows that objects are larger. The thing is that in most cases PHP can optimize the array part of it away. So how does that work?

The key here is that objects usually have a predefined set of keys, whereas arrays don't:

Laravel 5 Simple ACL - Protect routes by an account / role type

#Laravel 5 Simple ACL manager

Protect your routes with user roles. Simply add a 'role_id' to the User model, install the roles table and seed if you need some example roles to get going.

If the user has a 'Root' role, then they can perform any actions.

Installation

Simply copy the files across into the appropriate directories, and register the middleware in App\Http\Kernel.php

Setup New Relic deployment notifications in Envoyer

While Envoyer comes with Slack and Hipchat notifications out of the box we'll have to setup New Relic notifications ourselves. Luckily it's as easy as adding a deployment hook. Here's how to:

  1. Add a new hook after the "Activate New Release" hook.
  2. Add the following curl command as the script:
curl -H "x-api-key:REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_API_KEY" -d "deployment[app_name]=REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_APP_NAME" https://api.newrelic.com/deployments.xml

And that's it! Envoyer will now let New Relic know each time a deployment's made. You can be sure the deployment succeeded because it happens after the new release has been made active.
