Yes, you can write an ISAPI module if you want as little as possible between your program and IIS, but I wouldn't label that as "easily".

And I don't see why you would bother, ASP.Net is compiled, it's not exactly a performance hog, unlike PHP.



I haven't used them, but there are a variety of PHP compilers, like phc or Facebook's HipHop. I hear that they can really speed up PHP code.


I can't really tell from the phc page, but HipHop at least doesn't "speed up PHP code". It converts the code from PHP to C++. That isn't speeding up PHP, that's unraveling the PHP and respinning it as C++.


It's still speeding up PHP by compiling it, it's just using C++ as an (extra) intermediate representation.
