pthreads for PHP not executing parallel threads in Apache

问题

I'm using the pthreads extension for PHP. When I execute the PHP script from cmd on Windows I get parallel threads but when I call the same script from Apache I get a different result and it seems to me like single thread execution.

Is there any configuration that I should make for Apache to get response like cmd (parallel)?

class AsyncOperation extends Thread {
    public function __construct($arg){
        $this->arg = $arg;
    }

    public function run(){
        if($this->arg){
            for($i = 0; $i < 50; $i++) {
                echo "Yoo " . $this->arg . "<br>\n";
            }
        }
    }
}
$thread = new AsyncOperation("World ----------");
$thread2 = new AsyncOperation("Second -------------------------");
$thread->start();
$thread2->start();

for($i = 0; $i < 100; $i++) {
    echo "Standard <br>\n";
}

$thread->join();
$thread2->join();

Example code give response in cmd like:

Yoo World ----------<br>
Yoo World ----------<br>
Yoo World ----------<br>
Standard <br>
Standard <br>
Yoo World ----------<br>
Yoo Second -------------------------<br>
Standard <br>
Standard <br>

In web browser:

Yoo World ----------
Yoo World ----------
Yoo World ----------
Yoo World ----------
...
Yoo Second -------------------------
Yoo Second -------------------------
Yoo Second -------------------------
Yoo Second -------------------------
...
Standard 
Standard 
Standard 
Standard 
...

Update: on different browsers I get different results; this problem might be related to buffer, which I'm going to investigate.

Nothing is simulated, you are executing real threads.

You should not write the standard output from threads in SAPI mode, you will experience unexpected behaviour and errors, that cannot be controlled, there are too many environments and SAPI's to cover it well, so it is not covered at all, don't do it.

Even in CLI mode output of complex code will be garbled, to work around this, you can define a protected method in any object you pass to all contexts that takes care of writing standard output, if the method is protected and the object is a pthreads one, only one context will be able to write standard output at a time ... the same object could be used in the SAPI environment by swapping standard output for a logging database ...
