{{Cquote|The year 2014 is considered the official start of works on PHP 7. The basis of the version was an experimental branch, the PHP NG (Next Generation), which was designed to optimise performance. The developers worked to refactor the code in order to reduce memory consumption and increase said performance. They sure achieved their goal. Benchmarks for PHP 7 show twice the speed of PHP 5.6 and 50% less memory consumption.|||Rafał Węglarz (October 10, 2020) [https://www.droptica.com/blog/php-version-history/ PHP : Version History] droptica.com}}
