Result: Discarded
The test labeled "create_function()" was the faster by 0.0082 seconds, (1.445% faster)
The create_function() test took 0.5598 seconds.
The eval() test took 0.568 seconds.
Nitty-Gritty
Each test case ran 20 random code order iterations consisting of 147,712 loops for a total of 2,954,240 runs.
- Line execution difference (0.000003) milliseconds.
- Avg difference (0.410) milliseconds per 147,712 loops.
- Total difference 8.21 milliseconds for 2,954,240 loops
The iteration variablity for Code 1 was (1.5478) milliseconds and Code 2 was (1.1390) milliseconds. The lower and the closer together there values are the more accurate the results are.
Code
The first test, "eval()", was:
eval('
$x = 0;
$x += 5;
if ($x >= 5)
$x = 0;
$x;
$x;');
The second test, "create_function()", was:
/*
$GLOBALS['dummy'] = create_function('', '
$x = 0;
$x += 5;
if ($x >= 5)
$x = 0;
$x;
$x;');
*/
$GLOBALS['dummy']();
