ID: 39879 Updated by: tony2001@php.net Reported By: roberto at spadim dot com dot br -Status: Open +Status: Bogus Bug Type: Performance problem Operating System: ALL PHP Version: 5.2.0 New Comment: That's because you're comparing apples to oranges. Internal function has to copy the passed parameter, while userspace function may use copy-on-write, avoiding the malloc-memcpy-free cycle on each iteration.
