Greetings!

Torben has been complaining about speed and memory consumption of  
PhpDoc when generating the MidCOM API docs.

Here are some alternatives based on quick Googling:

PHPDoctor is a Javadoc style comment parser for PHP, written with an  
emphasis on speed and simplicity. It is not as fully featured as  
other PHPDoc programs, but is simple to configure, use, and extend.
http://phpdoctor.sourceforge.net/

phpdocgen is a script similar to javadoc, but designed for PHP source  
files. It permits to generate a set of HTML pages that contain the  
API documentation of the specified PHP files.

If, on the other hand, you're looking for alternatives, take a look  
at eZ phpdoc, a Perl-based auto-documentation utility created by the  
nice guys at eZ Systems
...the syntax used by eZ phpdoc is different from that used by PHPDoc.
