As you know php code doesn't compile to run,they are only script. but I heard somewhere if I compile it and make it as binary code,it can be so faster and reduce pressure on server. I Google a lot to do it,but I can't find a way to do it. how can I do it?

PHP compiles scripts into bytecodes, which can be cached, greatly speeding performance. Check out APC.
Here's a list of other accelerators:

If you're looking to compile to native code, you can check out solutions like HipHop, which transforms PHP source into C++ and then compiles it with g++.

HipHop is a “source code transformer” designed to reduce CPU and memory usage by transforming your PHP code into C++ code.

May I know why this has been downvoted. This take PHP into compiled language that is C++...
You probably read of Facebook's Hip Hop
HipHop was created by Facebook to save resources on its servers. It is being distributed with its over 300,000 lines of source code written in C++ and C as free software under the terms of version 3.01 of the PHP License.
