PHP, an HTML-embedded scripting language with syntax borrowed from C, Java, and Perl, with a couple of unique PHP-specific features thrown in, has been updated to version 5.5.6.

PHP 5.x includes a new OOP model based on the Zend Engine 2.0, a new extension for improved MySQL support, built-in native support for SQLite, and much more.

PHP 5.5.4 features a large number of improvements and fixes. For example, the performance of array_merge() and func_get_args() has been improved by eliminating useless copying, the default listen() backlog has been changed to 65535, the limit for opcache.max_accelerated_files has been increased to 1,000,000, and much more.
