The test labeled "md5()" was the faster by 0.0133 seconds, (1.513% faster)
The md5() test took 0.8689 seconds.
The sha1() test took 0.8822 seconds.
Nitty-Gritty
Each test case ran 20 random code order iterations consisting of 226,504 loops for a total of 4,530,080 runs.
- Line execution difference (0.000003) milliseconds.
- Avg difference (0.667) milliseconds per 226,504 loops.
- Total difference 13.35 milliseconds for 4,530,080 loops
The iteration variablity for Code 1 was (2.2679) milliseconds and Code 2 was (2.6843) milliseconds. The lower and the closer together there values are the more accurate the results are.
Code
The first test, "md5()", was:
$GLOBALS['dummy2'] = md5($GLOBALS['dummy']);
The second test, "sha1()", was:
$GLOBALS['dummy2'] = sha1($GLOBALS['dummy']);
