microtime() does not return microseconds in neither of the return modes
Normally returns "0.39081500 1709893727", first value trying to express the microsecond
precision, but failing, because microseconds are a millionth part of a second, which means 6
decimals, not 8
Second mode returns numbers like these "1709894168.1621", "1709894209.819", with
3 or 4 decimals, depending on mood, but never with 6, as the function would suggest
To be able to actually return microseconds or seconds with microsecond precision, I am using a
wrapper
function microtime_real($inSeconds = false)
{
if ($inSeconds === true) {
return number_format(microtime(true), 6, '.', '');
}
return (string)intval(microtime(true)* 1000000);
}
