Taylor Otwell recently released a new framework called Lumen. I am a big user of Laravel.

Can any one point out the difference between Laravel and Lumen micro framework.

What is micro framework all about and when should one use it.

Laravel is doing quite a lot of initialization during each request. With Lumen processing each request is much faster so it is supposed to be able to handle even more load than Laravel with all its caching.

This means that Lumen is less configurable but is able to handle more requests per second.
