Which Template System

GeeklogHum, how about using Smarty as a template system? I thought you wants speed + security at the top, so make your benchmarks with speed and compare Smarty and PHPLib! Also, PHPLib is out-dated, it's phpver 3 code. However, please think about.

No link? No explanation as to why it is better?

The PHPLib decision was made because I needed to get it done and we were dancing around which template system to use. It\'s memory footprint is minimal (350 lines of code). It supported nested templates and was object oriented.

All template systems negativley impact performance. That is a fact. So what makes this system your suggesting so fast? Remember, you\'re talking to a PHP coder here so the more specific the better.

SMARTY rocks. Yes. However, SMARTY requires PEAR. Bad Smarty, Naughty Smarty.

PHPLib is old. Read also, PHPLib is well tested and stable.

I do think we need to adress these issues, but I think this is a GL2 issue.
