Phalcon
A full-stack PHP framework delivered as a C-extension. Its innovative architecture makes Phalcon the fastest PHP framework ever built. Developers do not need to know C to use Phalcon. Its functionality is exposed as PHP classes and interfaces under the Phalcon namespace, ready to be used. Zephir/C extensions are loaded together with PHP one time on the web server's daemon start process. Classes and functions provided by the extension are ready to use for any application. The code is compiled and isn't interpreted because it's already compiled to a specific platform and processor. Thanks to its low-level architecture and optimizations Phalcon provides the lowest overhead for MVC-based applications. Build single and multi-module applications with ease and pleasure. Using the file structure, scheme, and patterns you already know. Writing REST servers and applications has never been easier, with no boilerplate, and simple services that fit in one file.

PHPixie
PHPixie is easy to learn and does not rely on automatic; you will always be in charge of what's happening. Designed for speed since first release and proven by independent benchmarks. Built using components that can be used without the framework. Linear execution flow, no static code, and low coupling. Reuse and share your code via Composer as self-contained bundles. Never find yourself in an event hell ever again as event use is avoided. Database components support working with MongoDB out of the box. Designed from scratch according to SOLID principles and industry standards. PHPixie started as a micro framework and has gradually grown to be one of the most popular full-stack PHP frameworks while retaining its high performance. This is in part because of the strict architecture that avoids common pitfalls such as reliance on static methods, global scope, singletons, and other antipatterns, thus also ensuring that the code is easy to read, debug, extend, and test.

Yii
Yii is a fast, secure, and efficient PHP framework. Flexible yet pragmatic, works right out of the box, and has reasonable defaults. While Yii can virtually eliminate most repetitive coding tasks, you are responsible for the real creative work. This often starts with designing the whole system to be built, in terms of some database schema. The best way to do this is by using migrations. Yii gives you the maximum functionality by adding the least possible overhead. Sane defaults and built-in tools help you write solid and secure code. Write more code in less time with simple, yet powerful APIs and code generation. Yii is a generic web programming framework, meaning that it can be used for developing all kinds of web applications using PHP. Because of its component-based architecture and sophisticated caching support, it is especially suitable for developing large-scale applications such as portals, forums, content management systems (CMS), ecommerce projects, RESTful services, etc.
