The <?php ?> test took 0.7807 seconds.
Nitty-Gritty
Each test case ran 20 random code order iterations consisting of 148,958 loops for a total of 2,979,160 runs.
- Line execution difference (0.000001) milliseconds.
- Avg difference (0.184) milliseconds per 148,958 loops.
- Total difference 3.68 milliseconds for 2,979,160 loops
The iteration variablity for Code 1 was (6.6137) milliseconds and Code 2 was (7.1865) 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
