目前我安装的 Homestead 虚拟机版本是 2.1.8：
该版本 Homestead 上预装的 PHP 版本是 5.6.15：
我们使用 ab 命令（Apache 提供的性能测试工具）在该版本中测试 Laravel 应用（以目前正在讲的使用Laravel开发的博客应用为例）性能，我们模拟 10000 次请求，100 个并发进行压力测试：
ab -n 10000 -c 100 http://blog.app/
运行结果如下：

100% 2720 (longest request)这里我们要关注的是红色加粗的文字，即每秒处理请求数，这是衡量系统性能的关键指标。根据系统及硬件配置的差异，数据会有些出入。
现在我们按照“Laravel Homestead 支持 PHP 7 ”这一节所述将 Homestead 中的 PHP 升级到 7.0 版本。
使用 vagrant ssh 登录到新添加的 homestead-7 虚拟机，查看 PHP 版本信息是否正确：
此时在浏览器中访问 http://blog.app 会报错，因为新安装的 Homestead 数据库数据为空，需要登录到虚拟机运行如下命令运行迁移并填充数据：
php artisan migrate php artisan db:seed
再次访问就OK了，好了我们继续使用同样的 ab 命令进行压力测试：
ab -n 10000 -c 100 http://blog.app/
运行结果如下：
