I try to avoid back-ticks as (for me at least) they obfuscate the code a little bit.

That said, it may give a small performance boost – I don’t know as I’ve not done any such tests, but maybe I will if I get 5 mins …

In your function ‘public function cc_wget_file($url)’, you’re passing the string through exec(). Thats fine, but PHP allows you to pass cli strings via backticks (http://www.php.net/language.operators.execution). Might help, might not, ymmv….

I wish I had this last night… gah!…
