First of all, I used the Japanese VPS on hand to build a Google proxy some time ago. The access speed is okay. I would like to share it with you. Everyone:

Sometimes when we optimize PHP performance, we need to know the execution time of a certain function. In Python, there is the timeit module. Is there a similar module in PHP?
So, I wrote a simple timeit function myself, as follows:
/** * Compute the delay to execute a function a number of time * @param $count Number of time that the tests will execute the given function * @param $function the function to test. Can be a string with parameters (ex: 'myfunc(123, 0, 342)') or a callback * @return float Duration in seconds (as a float) */ function timeit($count, $function<span>) { if ($count <= 0<span>){ echo "Error: count have to be more than zero"<span>; return -1<span>; } $nbargs = func_num_args<span>(); if ($nbargs < 2<span>) { echo 'Error: No Funciton!'<span>; echo 'Usage:'<span>; echo "\ttimeit(count, 'function(param)')"<span>; echo "\te.g:timeit(100, 'function(0,2)')"<span>; return -1; // no function to time <span> } // Generate callback $func = func_get_arg(1<span>); $func_name = current(explode('(', $func<span>)); if (!function_exists($func_name<span>)) { echo 'Error: Unknown Function'<span>; return -1; // can't test unknown function <span> } $str_cmd = ''<span>; $str_cmd .= '$start = microtime(true);'<span>; $str_cmd .= 'for($i=0; $i<'.$count.'; $i++) '.$func.';'<span>; $str_cmd .= '$end = microtime(true);'<span>; $str_cmd .= 'return ($end - $start);'<span>; return eval($str_cmd<span>); }</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span>
Test the execution time of a root-finding algorithm you wrote and the system’s built-in root-finding function, as follows:
//取平方根 function sqrt_nd($num<span>){ $value = $num<span>; while(abs($value*$value -$num) > 0.001<span>){ $value = ($value + $num/$value)/2<span>; } return $value<span>; } print timeit(1000, 'sqrt_nd(5)'<span>); print "\n"<span>; print timeit(1000, 'sqrt(5)');</span></span></span></span></span></span></span>
The test results are as follows:
0.028280019760132 0.0041000843048096
It can be seen that the built-in root function is more than 6 times faster than the custom root function~~
