using PEAR on shared web host

[Free WordPress Themes]

Hello,

after writing lots of classes I started finally with pear classes.

because all my websites running on a shared host I have to use the browser based installer / admin tool.

I heard about that the PEAR server is not so fast and also the web interface is (very) slow.

I installed the pear library one level above the site root otherwise it will not work.
At last it's possible to to me update the php.ini file to change the include path.

How is your experience with PEAR in a similar configuration?

I think it will work fine.

Anyway, for some reason I don't really like PEAR, I think it is a little slow.

plus Pear:
- the classes are really easy to use (clear code)
- Pear projects are using other pear classes
- one include path takes care about later includes

minus Pear:
- some of them are php5 compatible (but are they written with php5 OOP functions?)
- your own OOP knowlegdge will not raise so much
- the Pear server is buggy/slow
