Historical Results
Based on (6) saved test runs, The test labeled "include" was (on average) the faster by 0.0159 seconds, (2.334% faster)
The include test took 0.6653 seconds.
The include_once test took 0.6812 seconds.
Nitty-Gritty
Each test case ran 20 random code order iterations consisting of 178,965 loops for a total of 3,579,300 runs.
- Line execution difference (0.000004) milliseconds.
- Avg difference (0.000) milliseconds per 178,965 loops.
- Total difference 15.90 milliseconds for 3,579,300 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, "include", was:
clearstatcache();
include('supplement/dummy.inc');
The second test, "include_once", was:
clearstatcache();
include_once('supplement/dummy.inc');
