I apologize, had not scrolled down, thought that the latest was 7.1.9.
I just downloaded and tested the master branch (7.3.0-dev) and it is indeed way faster, as your
results show ab@php.net
5.3.28:
mb_strlen: 153.6 milliseconds
mb_stripos: 1814.6 milliseconds
mb_substr: 163.1 milliseconds
7.1.1
mb_strlen: 289 milliseconds
mb_stripos: 3247.3 milliseconds
mb_substr: 295.7 milliseconds
7.3 (master)
mb_strlen: 33.7 milliseconds
mb_stripos: 139.6 milliseconds
mb_substr: 41.8 milliseconds
you can mark the bug as solved. Thank you. Would be grateful if it was included on 7.2

Thanks for checking. I've tested your snippet now, but the results are somewhat different.
5.3 x86
mb_strlen: 327.4 milliseconds
mb_stripos: 3125.6 milliseconds
mb_substr: 260.6 milliseconds
5.6 x86
mb_strlen: 293 milliseconds
mb_stripos: 3145.3 milliseconds
mb_substr: 342.4 milliseconds
7.1 x86
mb_strlen: 432 milliseconds
mb_stripos: 5672.8 milliseconds
mb_substr: 567.7 milliseconds
master x86
mb_strlen: 73.6 milliseconds
mb_stripos: 248.5 milliseconds
mb_substr: 69.6 milliseconds
master x64
mb_strlen: 91.6 milliseconds
mb_stripos: 312.6 milliseconds
mb_substr: 101.6 milliseconds
To see is, that indeed some slowdown made it into PHP 7. The current master however is significant
faster that any previous branch, even on 64 bit. Please note, that 7.1 is not master. You need to
fetch literally master snapshots from the page linked, the improvements are not anywhere else ATM.
Thanks.

ab@php.net, nikic@php.net:
Unfortunately under Windows I still see no difference. New results:
5.3.28:
mb_strlen: 309.4 milliseconds
mb_stripos: 3523.4 milliseconds
mb_substr: 326.6 milliseconds
7.1.1:
mb_strlen: 426.3 milliseconds
mb_stripos: 4812.5 milliseconds
mb_substr: 421.9 milliseconds
7.1.9-dev (master)
mb_strlen: 421.9 milliseconds
mb_stripos: 4890.6 milliseconds
mb_substr: 421.9 milliseconds

@andxfiles, Nikita made quite a few improvements to ext mbstring in master, see bug #74933. I'd
say, it would make sense to check some latest master snapshot, to fetch here http://windows.php.net/snapshots/ . We also work on a
new PGO approach, so further improvements are to come.
Thanks.

Both versions of php are Non Thread Safe. Windows version is: Windows Server 2012 Standard 64bit.
However, a user on stackoverflow (link in previous comment) has replicated it in Windows 7 as well.

Ok. As a followup - both use same flavor TS/NTS? Both tested on the same machine? Which exact Widows
version?
Thanks.
