The goal was to make the best looking urls which meant a .php
extension was out of the picture. But as I said everything is
relative.. our .htm files are purely php. If you mix php and html very
much maybe the performance cost is bigger. I have no numbers of how
much traffic it gets per second but I don't think it's a few
thousand.. although we did test with ab.
