note 68743 added to function.echo

To determine which method is best for outputting HTML, I ran a simple benchmark that tests the following snippets: <? for ( $i = 0; $i < 10000; $i++ ) echo 'This is some test data that will be output via the script.'; ?> <? $output = ''; for ( $i = 0; $i < 10000; $i++ ) $output .= 'This is some test data that will be output via the script.'; echo $output; ?> <? for ( $i = 0; $i < 10000; $i++ ) { ?>This is some test data that will be output via the script.<? } ?> My results are as such: echo, one by one: 0.00934410095215 echo, concat: 0.02032995224 open/close php: 0.00726199150085 Hope this saves someone the trouble of doing the same. ---- Server IP: 81.92.200.26 Probable Submitter: 87.196.242.66 ---- X-Spam-Status: No, hits=3.1 required=5.0 tests=DATE_MISSING,FROM_NO_LOWER autolearn=no version=2.64 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.echo.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/68743 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/68743/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/68743/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/68743/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/68743/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/68743/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/68743/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/68743 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/68743 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
