Nitty-Gritty
Each test case ran 20 random code order iterations consisting of 151,010 loops for a total of 3,020,200 runs.
- Line execution difference (0.000015) milliseconds.
- Avg difference (2.256) milliseconds per 151,010 loops.
- Total difference 45.11 milliseconds for 3,020,200 loops
The iteration variablity for Code 1 was (0.7474) milliseconds and Code 2 was (2.1154) 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'));
The second test, "file_get_contents()", was:
