Christmas comes early thanks to Composer
Published on by Eric L. Barnes
Composer received a massive speed boost yesterday. One of the lead developers, Jordi Boggiano, posted on Twitter about the improvement:
Between some optimizations from @naderman and a tip by @schmittjoh about gc_disable, Composer now runs in ~half the time it did yesterday!
To get the latest all you need to do is run:
composer self-update
All the PHP developers rejoiced and posted gifs :)
