Getting started with asynchronous PHP using ReactPHP
ReactPHP has various components, such as the event loop, promise, and streams. When you install ReactPHP, these components and a few more are installed, so you don’t have to install the separately.
-
Where does PHP being single threaded affect performance and can anything be done to make it better?
For that things PHP usually uses external help in form of queues in Redis or other DBs. And then one process which spawn other ones. Did you heard about Event Loop, pcntl_fork() and php-cli from crontab? That solves the whole problem in the world before Fibers.
-
Does PHP really not support asynchronous calls natively?
It can run without an extension, but for best performance, one of libuv, libev or libevent should be installed to accelerate performance, otherwise it uses stream_select() which doesn't require an extension but has worse performance. See https://github.com/reactphp/event-loop#loop-implementations

Maintainer of Swoole about the Fibers RFC: "I am afraid that fiber can only be used in the amphp framework and is of no value to other php projects."
Aaron and Niklas also took the time, as mentioned in the RFC, to build a proof of concept/reference implementation to add support for fibers to ReactPHP.
