odbc vs. oci8

Hi, which one is the fastest: odbc or oci8?

I use PHP 5 with IIS on Windows Server 2003 with Oracle 8 and 9 on
several Alpha Servers with OpenVMS. Which one should I choose, odbc or
oci8? Does oci8 works with Oracle 9i?

For now I wrote my web applications with odbc support because the other
apps at my job were usings that. But it's a bit slow and since I don't
really know the difference I chose odbc...

Any advice? Thanks a lot!
