Line execution difference (0.000013) milliseconds.
Avg difference (1.857) milliseconds per 138,425 loops.
Total difference 37.15 milliseconds for 2,768,500 loops

The iteration variablity for Code 1 was (0.6304) milliseconds and Code 2 was (2.6155) 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']++;
