Nitty-Gritty

Each test case ran 20 random code order iterations consisting of 289,511 loops for a total of 5,790,220 runs.

Line execution difference (0.000008) milliseconds.
Avg difference (2.381) milliseconds per 289,511 loops.
Total difference 47.63 milliseconds for 5,790,220 loops

Code

The first test, "@ (shut up)", was:

$temp = 0;
@$GLOBALS[dummy]++;
$GLOBALS['dummy'] = $temp;

The second test, "error_reporting(0)", was:

$temp = error_reporting(0);
$GLOBALS[dummy]++;
error_reporting($temp);
