PHP generally uses a smaller memory footprint. The OCI connectors also appear to be somewhat better than the jdbc ones generally used by java. For simple processing (including some largish data sets) PHP does a very good job. If you want highly custom, big featured user interface and strong session control then java's extra power (particularly when using applets rather than jsp) becomes a winner.
