static hello world page -> 6500 rps
<?php print "hello world" ?> -> 4000 rps
retrieve one db row -> 1750 rps

CI hello world -> 170 rps
CI retrieve one db row -> 106 rps

Content caching solutions aside, this is kind of shocking. I would expect these kinds of numbers from Symphony, not CI. Can you turn on the benchmarking class to find out what's taking all the time?

I turned on the profiler in the constructor of my controller. It says:

Loading Time Base Classes: 0.0064
Controller Execution Time ( Blog / Index ): 0.0087

This seems quite fast. I turned on top and noticed that during this benchmarking, apache processes where using all of the CPU. APC, etc seem to help a lot here. On my laptop I went from 20 rps to 100 rps. A similar increase on our dev server (I don't want to install APC on it right now) would be over 500 rps, which is really good.
