If server has default config set not to show the errors use this at the begining of your php file:

error_reporting(E_ALL);
ini_set(’display_errors’, ‘1′);

1. If a method can be static, declare it static. Speed improvement is by a factor of 4.

2. Avoid magic like __get, __set, __autoload

3. require_once() is expensive

4. Use full paths in includes and requires, less time spent on resolving the OS paths.

5. If you need to find out the time when the script started executing, $_SERVER[’REQUEST_TIME’] is preferred to time()

6. See if you can use strncasecmp, strpbrk and stripos instead of regex
