Nitty-Gritty
Each test case ran 20 random code order iterations consisting of 275,397 loops for a total of 5,507,940 runs.
- Line execution difference (0.000002) milliseconds.
- Avg difference (0.458) milliseconds per 275,397 loops.
- Total difference 9.16 milliseconds for 5,507,940 loops
The iteration variablity for Code 1 was (6.1584) milliseconds and Code 2 was (7.2989) milliseconds. The lower and the closer together there values are the more accurate the results are.
Code
The first test, "file()", was:
implode('', file('supplement/dummy.inc'));
