So you profiled the sites enough to understand that the actual bottleneck for these sites was the framework CPU/memory overhead?

Yes. That's part of my job.

I don't know what the requirements of these sites are

Then anything else is just blather. I know more about my systems than you do.

Was a full rewrite in a base language only really an easier/superior decision then finding more simply caching solutions (which many frameworks support out of the box)?

Yes. For my purposes. Perhaps not for the sites you work with.

Sorry, but I'm extremely skeptical that rewriting a framework based codebase into plain old PHP is ever a good idea. I've maintained too many legacy (mostly PHP) codebases in my career where the creator thought he knew better than everyone else to think otherwise.
