28.18. Use php.ini-recommended
The PHP distribution includes a file named php.ini-recommended alongside the standard php.ini-dist file. Unlike php.ini-dist, which comes preconfigured for PHP's default settings, php.ini-recommended has a list of nonstandard settings, which improve PHP's security and performance. Each nonstandard setting is thoroughly documented in the body of php.ini-recommended, which describes the consequences of enabling it as well as the category of improvement to which this setting is related, such as performance or security. When installing PHP for the first time, or when you want to tune your PHP server for performance, try to use php.ini-recommended.
