The difference happens at parse time, so if you want to measure any difference execute php script in a loop, not loop inside php script.

DOH! nice one Marek, will make an attempt to 'bash' a script together asap (I'm crap at shell scripting! but the challenge is a good one). thanks for the heads up. thinking about what you said, dumping some test code inside an exec() call would have the same effect, no?

Right, you don't need bash scripting for this, you can use php for just about anything now ;)
