The ob_start() test took 0.6236 seconds.
The not test took 0.6358 seconds.
Nitty-Gritty
Each test case ran 20 random code order iterations consisting of 142,011 loops for a total of 2,840,220 runs.
- Line execution difference (0.000004) milliseconds.
- Avg difference (0.611) milliseconds per 142,011 loops.
- Total difference 12.22 milliseconds for 2,840,220 loops
The iteration variablity for Code 1 was (4.3416) milliseconds and Code 2 was (4.0418) milliseconds. The lower and the closer together there values are the more accurate the results are.
Code
The first test, "ob_start()", was:
ob_start(); for ($i = 0; $i < 20; $i++) $GLOBALS['dummy2'] = $i * 2; ob_end_clean();
The second test, "not", was:
for ($i = 0; $i < 20; $i++) $GLOBALS['dummy2'] = $i * 2;
