Nitty-Gritty

Each test case ran 20 random code order iterations consisting of 288,169 loops for a total of 5,763,380 runs.

Line execution difference (0.000002) milliseconds.
Avg difference (0.666) milliseconds per 288,169 loops.
Total difference 13.33 milliseconds for 5,763,380 loops

The iteration variablity for Code 1 was (2.5482) milliseconds and Code 2 was (0.8078) 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, "strcmp()", was:

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