The echo test took 1.0914 seconds.
Nitty-Gritty
Each test case ran 20 random code order iterations consisting of 250,481 loops for a total of 5,009,620 runs.
- Line execution difference (0.000000) milliseconds.
- Avg difference (0.104) milliseconds per 250,481 loops.
- Total difference 2.07 milliseconds for 5,009,620 loops
The iteration variablity for Code 1 was (3.8162) milliseconds and Code 2 was (2.6687) milliseconds. The lower and the closer together there values are the more accurate the results are.
Code
The first test, "echo", was:
for ($j = 0; $j < 100; $j++) echo 'some text';
The second test, "<?php ?>", was:
for ($j = 0; $j < 100; $j++)
{
?>some text<?php
