As a former php dev I absolutely believe this. I can't get over how slow and bloated stuff is these days. I can't even do front-end anymore.
We once did an app ages ago where the database was used to create a materialized view of code (PHP) + web pages for everyone and everything. We then rsynced that to 6 machines. This is ancient times, but this thing FLEW -> click click click click you could fly through the pages. It was a read heavy workload, but still, even the front-end (just hand coded) was somehow faster than all the latest and greatest going on these days.
