  • 0

How does one go about calculating which of 2 functions is faster. Is there a way to do this conclusively in php? Is there a best practice, like do it n times then get the average, and what would that n be?

p.s. I’m looking for something that doesn’t require a special setup if possible. So I’m not looking for a specialized framework, more like a primitive way of getting an idea.

    • You can time your scripts with microtime. Example included in that page.
    • The larger you n, the better your results.
    • Keep things like caching in mind. If the functions request the same stuff from the database, the first request may be slower then the rest.
    • Repeat a couple of times (so do m tests of n times)
