Nitty-Gritty
Each test case ran 20 random code order iterations consisting of 130,836 loops for a total of 2,616,720 runs.
- Line execution difference (0.000005) milliseconds.
- Avg difference (0.644) milliseconds per 130,836 loops.
- Total difference 12.88 milliseconds for 2,616,720 loops
The iteration variablity for Code 1 was (4.4592) milliseconds and Code 2 was (3.4503) milliseconds. The lower and the closer together there values are the more accurate the results are.
Code
The first test, "fcall", was:
/*
function do_something()
{
for ($i = 0; $i < 20; $i++)
$GLOBALS['dummy'] + $i;
}
*/
do_something();
The second test, "no fcall", was:
for ($i = 0; $i < 20; $i++) $GLOBALS['dummy'] + $i;
