Nitty-Gritty

Each test case ran 20 random code order iterations consisting of 265,588 loops for a total of 5,311,760 runs.

Line execution difference (0.000012) milliseconds.
Avg difference (3.167) milliseconds per 265,588 loops.
Total difference 63.35 milliseconds for 5,311,760 loops

The iteration variablity for Code 1 was (3.5973) milliseconds and Code 2 was (5.3333) milliseconds. The lower and the closer together there values are the more accurate the results are.

Code

The first test, "==", was:

for ($j = 0; $j < 100; $j++)
	$GLOBALS['dummy3'] = $GLOBALS['dummy1'] == $GLOBALS['dummy2'];

The second test, "===", was:

for ($j = 0; $j < 100; $j++)
	$GLOBALS['dummy3'] = $GLOBALS['dummy1'] === $GLOBALS['dummy2'];
