Nitty-Gritty
Each test case ran 20 random code order iterations consisting of 147,884 loops for a total of 2,957,680 runs.
- Line execution difference (0.000001) milliseconds.
- Avg difference (0.000) milliseconds per 147,884 loops.
- Total difference 2.28 milliseconds for 2,957,680 loops
The iteration variablity for Code 1 was (0.0000) milliseconds and Code 2 was (0.0000) milliseconds. The lower and the closer together there values are the more accurate the results are.
Code
The first test, "addslashes()", was:
$GLOBALS['dummy2'] = addslashes($GLOBALS['dummy']);
The second test, "addcslashes()", was:
$GLOBALS['dummy2'] = addcslashes($GLOBALS['dummy'], '\'"\\\0');
