I’ll be the first to state that there is no shortcut to making your PHP applications scream. This series aims to break it down into several steps. The first step will be taking a look at the PHP configuration on the server. We’ll be focusing specifically on PHP this article as a later article will cover 3rd party software which are an essential part of scaling your applications. Comments and suggestions welcome!

I fail to see what are you trying to achieve with those ini settings.
If you claim they impact performance, post some numbers.

@antych, the performance impacts of these ini settings would be really hard to benchmark. They are probably too minimal for me to get accurate statistics on. However, that by no means is a reason to not implement them. It's common sense that adjusting PHP's memory limit or how it populates super globals on each page request can have positive impacts on PHP's overall performance.
This list is by no means a complete solution for speeding up your PHP apps. That's what it's part of a series. These changes are trivial to make so there's no reason not to if you have access.

What's hard about it? You mean their impact on performance is not even measurable? They might as well degrade it...
Anyway there are almost entirely copied from php.ini-recommended. Why not just telling your readers to use the recommended config and not modify it without a good reason?
This looks like a false start for me, better luck with part 2
