Result: Discarded
The test labeled "==" was the faster by 0.0228 seconds, (2.288% faster)
The == test took 0.9725 seconds.
The === test took 0.9953 seconds.
Nitty-Gritty
Each test case ran 20 random code order iterations consisting of 279,666 loops for a total of 5,593,320 runs.
- Line execution difference (0.000004) milliseconds.
- Avg difference (1.139) milliseconds per 279,666 loops.
- Total difference 22.77 milliseconds for 5,593,320 loops
The iteration variablity for Code 1 was (0.2643) milliseconds and Code 2 was (0.8344) 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'] = (int) $GLOBALS['dummy1'] === (int) $GLOBALS['dummy2'];
