note 110612 added to class.splfixedarray

As the documentation says, SplFixedArray is meant to be *faster* than array. Do not blindly believe other people's benchmarks, and beextra careful with the user comments on php.net. For instance, nairbv's benchmark code is completely wrong. Among other errors, it intends to increase the size of the arrays, but always initialize a 20 elements SplFixedArray. On a PHP 5.4 64 bits linux server, I found SplFixedArray to be always faster than array(). * small data (1,000): * write: SplFixedArray is 15 % faster * read: SplFixedArray is 5 % faster * larger data (512,000): * write: SplFixedArray is 33 % faster * read: SplFixedArray is 10 % faster ---- Server IP: 195.221.21.36 Probable Submitter: 88.172.133.112 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/class.splfixedarray.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/110612 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/110612/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/110612/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/110612/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/110612/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/110612/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/110612/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/110612 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/110612 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
