callback 100%

wrapped 97.596%

The callback test took 1.026 seconds.
The wrapped test took 1.0513 seconds.

Nitty-Gritty

Each test case ran 20 random code order iterations consisting of 219,676 loops for a total of 4,393,513 runs.

Line execution difference (0.000006) milliseconds.
Avg difference (0.000) milliseconds per 219,676 loops.
Total difference 25.28 milliseconds for 4,393,513 loops

The iteration variablity for Code 1 was (0.0000) milliseconds and Code 2 was (0.0000) milliseconds. The lower and the closer together there values are the more accurate the results are.

Code

The first test, "callback", was:

if ($GLOBALS['dummy'] === 41)
	$cb = 'do_something1';
else
	$cb = 'do_something2';
$cb();

The second test, "wrapped", was:

/*
function do_something($type)
{
	if ($type === 'do_something1')
		do_something1();
	else
		do_something2();
}
*/

if ($GLOBALS['dummy'] == 41)
	$cb = 'do_something1';
else
	$cb = 'do_something2';
do_something($cb);
