RE: [PHP-PEAR] PHPLib and Pear merge

Here's a theory: I assume you're using auto_prepend_file for phplib? If so, the 
benchmark for phplib probably starts _after_ you've included the db driver. So, 
why don't you try two things:

1. use auto_prepend_file to preload whichever PEAR db driver you're using.

2. Remove the auto_prepend for phplib and manually include the db stuff, after 
you've started the benchmark timing.

(obviously these shouldn't be done at the same time, but tested individually). 
I'd be interested how much this changes the results.
