Hi all, As I was working on upgrading the dec[bin|hex|oct] functions to convert large doubles, I noticed how much slower things were when converting Unicode strings to double. I found that converting the whole thing to string and using regular zend_strtod() was much faster. Then I decided to try modifying the u_strtod() function to do the same, but just on the relevant numeric portion.
I don't know if I did everything right, but it seems to work fine with my limited testing. (I was working from zend_u_strtol() and zval_unicode_to_string_ex(). :-)) The function is now about *8 times* faster, and nearly 20 times faster on a non-numeric string! (I'm on Windows.) diff: http://realplain.com/php/zend_u_strtod.diff Is this something that can be used?
