No... no its not. PHP is bound by IO in 99,9% of cases. This means im pretty much fucked the moment i need to do something even a little more complex. Say one request need 5-10 separate sql queries, and some http call and possibly some task like sending a mail. PHP need to run these all sync. I have to hack around and use a shit-tonne of deps like message queues and all sorts of plugins to get something like this working performantly.

Before you go on that apologist route, no, im not installing any random shit just to do simple stuff like this..
