The one thing I don't like about PHP is that the whole application is bootstraped (and autoloading and the configuration is re-evaluated) in every single http request. Sure thing there's cache and all, but it just doesn't feel right (compared, to, for instance, an http server written in golang)

This is one of the best things about PHP IMO. It makes it very easy to scale out.

Yup. No shared state by default.

It also makes it much easier to debug and forces the complexity down.
