Nitty-Gritty

Each test case ran 20 random code order iterations consisting of 245,030 loops for a total of 4,900,600 runs.

Line execution difference (0.000006) milliseconds.
Avg difference (1.484) milliseconds per 245,030 loops.
Total difference 29.68 milliseconds for 4,900,600 loops

The iteration variablity for Code 1 was (3.2187) milliseconds and Code 2 was (3.5190) milliseconds. The lower and the closer together there values are the more accurate the results are.

Code

The first test, "notices", was:

for ($i = 0; $i < 100; $i++)
	$GLOBALS[dummy]++;

The second test, "clean code", was:

for ($i = 0; $i < 100; $i++)
	$GLOBALS['dummy']++;
