Symfony 1.1’s New Architecture

I came across this post from a few months ago on the Symfony site:

http://www.symfony-project.org/blog/2008/06/23/the-symfony-1-1-architecture

It’s a really interesting overview of the new decoupling of core classes that Symfony 1.1 provides. This is particularly useful information if you’re designing something that needs to be fast and trim and you don’t want to load the entire Symfony framework on every request. Essentially you can create a custom sub-framework out of Symfony components for just the pieces you need. This saves a lot of the overhead of having to load extra components that you won’t use.

Worth a read.
