Nitty-Gritty

Each test case ran 20 random code order iterations consisting of 155,474 loops for a total of 3,109,480 runs.

Line execution difference (0.000007) milliseconds.
Avg difference (1.048) milliseconds per 155,474 loops.
Total difference 20.96 milliseconds for 3,109,480 loops

The iteration variablity for Code 1 was (1.6802) milliseconds and Code 2 was (2.0046) 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']++;
