Corrrect me if i'm wrong, Just like to know if Composer affects the speed of the framework since it auto-loads libraries that you may not use frequently in your website and maybe this is why Codeigniter is faster than other frameworks since it does not auto-loads unnecessary libraries. If thats the case, maybe we should always take into consideration the speed advantage of the framework to others when doing this upgrades. BTW, I am using composer with laravel and yii2 its a great tool.
Composer will only autoload libraries when you request them. CodeIgniter already has a simple autoloader in it, but for CI-only stuff, like the libraries, models, etc. Depending on how it's used, I've found that Composer can be every bit as fast as CI and frequently faster. So no worries here from a performance stand-point. The performance is usually hindered by other design decisions taken by the different frameworks.
ok great to hear that, im really looking forward to this new upgrade decisions for Codeigniter 4. Although I am using other frameworks in the meantime, I still love the simplicity of Codeigniter for mid to large scale projects and will always be a Codeigniter fan. Hopefully codeigniter can also integrate simple and scalable authentications and its nice to have crud generators and built in hmvc that can also work with mvc side by side, just my opinion BTW. Again more power and kudos to Codeigniter!
