All depends on the specific use and situation - pros and cons by both
models, for speed and performance, I mostly use optimized functions sorted
out in structured files for easy reuse, rather than objects. PHP5 seem to
embrase object orientation more, so lets see if a war starts again - it's
religion. Think before you program.

It's precisely the same, if you include a file with your class or include a
file with your functions, whats the difference ? none.
