Result: Discarded
The test labeled "global" was the faster by 0.0017 seconds, (0.154% faster)
The global test took 1.0784 seconds.
The local test took 1.08 seconds.
Nitty-Gritty
Each test case ran 20 random code order iterations consisting of 293,770 loops for a total of 5,875,400 runs.
- Line execution difference (0.000000) milliseconds.
- Avg difference (0.083) milliseconds per 293,770 loops.
- Total difference 1.67 milliseconds for 5,875,400 loops
The iteration variablity for Code 1 was (2.5322) milliseconds and Code 2 was (2.3731) milliseconds. The lower and the closer together there values are the more accurate the results are.
Code
The first test, "global", was:
global $dummy; for ($i = 0; $i < 100; $i++) $dummy = $i;
The second test, "local", was:
$dummy = null; for ($i = 0; $i < 100; $i++) $dummy = $i;
