The test labeled "$array[0]" was the faster by 0.0003 seconds, (0.063% faster)
The $array[0] test took 0.5271 seconds.
The list ($v) = test took 0.5274 seconds.
Nitty-Gritty
Each test case ran 20 random code order iterations consisting of 142,784 loops for a total of 2,855,680 runs.
- Line execution difference (0.000000) milliseconds.
- Avg difference (0.017) milliseconds per 142,784 loops.
- Total difference 0.33 milliseconds for 2,855,680 loops
The iteration variablity for Code 1 was (1.4890) milliseconds and Code 2 was (1.1183) milliseconds. The lower and the closer together there values are the more accurate the results are.
Code
The first test, "list ($v) =", was:
list ($v) = $GLOBALS['array'];
The second test, "$array[0]", was:
$v = $GLOBALS['array'][0];
