Excellent highlighter, performance could be better
by Wells
GeSHi is an excellent syntax highlighter, both in terms of the number of languages it supports, as well as the various different output formats.
I was happy that GeSHi could output valid XHTML using divs and spans, so I could write my own CSS stylesheet to style the code.
The only small problem is that large code blocks can take up significant server CPU. Apparently a future version (1.2) will have some performance and caching

I've recently started to help out with GeSHi and concentrated on pushing the performance higher and higher. What does that mean?
version | average speed (5 runs)
------------------------------------------
1.0.7.20 | 5.72 kB/s
r1400 soon 1.0.8 | 49.27 kB/s
------------------------------------------
So the new GeSHi is nearly ten times as fast! And don't forget 1.0.8 also has bugfixes, more
