Nitty-Gritty
Each test case ran 20 random code order iterations consisting of 286,496 loops for a total of 5,729,920 runs.
- Line execution difference (0.000008) milliseconds.
- Avg difference (2.281) milliseconds per 286,496 loops.
- Total difference 45.61 milliseconds for 5,729,920 loops
The iteration variablity for Code 1 was (14.6634) milliseconds and Code 2 was (11.9891) 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, "mysql_escape_string()", was:
$GLOBALS['dummy2'] = mysql_real_escape_string($GLOBALS['dummy']);
