I don't have any particular claims on performance at hand. TWiki stores |
| 11 |
the data in plaintext files which may or may not be beneficial depending |
| 12 |
on various scenarios, the code is very mature but that of course does |
| 13 |
not say anything on whether the performance is good or not compared to, |
| 14 |
say, MediaWiki. Here [1] is a reasonably recent writeup on TWiki's |
| 15 |
performance. |

As to the features, I (contrary to sebastian in an earlier answer) quite |
| 18 |
like the syntax, I think it's a bit more comfortable the MediaWiki in |
| 19 |
popular scenarios. |

There's a good ACL system, it's got an integrated ticket system, a |
| 22 |
mobile-version plugin, and I too think the whole concept of Webs is |
| 23 |
neat. The search system is extensive and includes regex searching. |

And yeah, it's not PHP :) (no flame intended™) |
