Prepare Your Linux Server

What Does This Really Do?

Basically we set up the timezone and locale, and only allow for SSH root login without password, by using SSH authentication key. We also add a basic Vim conviguration inside .vimrc by adding line numbers by default.

Then we update the repository and the system, and also add basic tools like nano, curl, tmux, even vim itself doesn't included by the system. zsh and git is prequisites for oh-my-zsh,

Why objects (usually) use less memory than arrays in PHP

This is just a small post in response to [this tweet][tweet] by Julien Pauli (who by the way is the release manager for PHP 5.5). In the tweet he claims that objects use more memory than arrays in PHP. Even though it can be like that, it's not true in most cases. (Note: This only applies to PHP 5.4 or newer.)

The reason why it's easy to assume that objects are larger than arrays is because objects can be seen as an array of properties and a bit of additional information (like the class it belongs to). And as array + additional info > array it obviously follows that objects are larger. The thing is that in most cases PHP can optimize the array part of it away. So how does that work?

The key here is that objects usually have a predefined set of keys, whereas arrays don't:
