I have found array_unshift is a function that should be avoided when unshifting lots of data in
large arrays.
In a recent script I wrote, it took approx. 24 seconds to unshift 3500 timestamps to an array, a
work around could be to use array_reverse and array_push. Array_push is much faster due to the
indexing.
