Result: Discarded
The test labeled "local" was the faster by 0.0376 seconds, (7.204% faster)
The local test took 0.4845 seconds.
The global test took 0.5221 seconds.
Nitty-Gritty
Each test case ran 20 random code order iterations consisting of 133,057 loops for a total of 2,661,140 runs.
- Line execution difference (0.000014) milliseconds.
- Avg difference (1.881) milliseconds per 133,057 loops.
- Total difference 37.62 milliseconds for 2,661,140 loops
The iteration variablity for Code 1 was (4.0531) milliseconds and Code 2 was (1.1598) 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;
