CodeIgniter is fastest according to different speed tests and benchmarks. Frameworks are used to speedup the development of complex and large webapplications. The little difference of speed in code execution doesn't matter in most cases. So the "development speed" is mostly same. All of these frameworks are made with the same design pattern, So the basic working is the same. You can say CI is the basic MVC framework, whereas frameworks like symfony are advanced MVC frameworks. So, naturally basic things look more simpler. The selection of CI can ease the Pre-Project timeline, i.e the training of resources to some extent. However, for comparatively large and scalable applications Symfony and Cake with their rich feature sets are worth to deal with. Hi,
