I think the http interface does not perform as well as the binary one
and does not allow you to do everything that Tokyo Tyrant proposes.

I have written a PHP version of the binary protocol which is complete
and up-to-date. FYI, the Python version is not up-to-date. If you want
a model to get inspiration, either use my PHP implementation or the
Perl or Ruby ones.

You can find my code here:
