PHP or NodeJS to use for parser?

Question

PHP

What javascript to use for the parser? The main criterion is that the parser must be fast. It mainly parses JSON, XML (RSS+Atom), Twitter (via API) and HTML (but do not forget about frequent HTTP requests and database queries).
As for libraries, NodeJS means:

1. HTML - cheerio
   
2. RSS+Atom - node-feedparser or node-parse-rss
   
3. JSON - JSON.parse()
   
4. Twitter - twit or node-twitter
   

For PHP:

1. HTML - Simple HTML DOM (including PSR-7 implementations: php-simple-html-dom-parser and php-html-parser )
   
2. RSS+Atom - rss-php
   
3. JSON - json_decode()
   
4. Twitter - twitter-api-php
   

If you can offer your more productive ones, etc. libraries or recommend some library from "or" - write

Answer 1

PHP7+ curl_multi_init

Answer 2

Just imagine:
You have a blog written in java (using a framework of course) and you implement some simple functionality in php.
Here you have the same.
Both languages ​​are great if you write a pure parser (there will be nothing else) - you don't have to read my comment)

Answer 3

I'd rather do it in PHP. As far as I know, the node has problems with mysql.
But with a caveat, I would do the back part in PHP.
