This code is a fallback in instances where length is not know, which is something that may happen. Given that this is an API function I don't think we can make this change as it may break out-of-php code that relies on this functionality. I really don't think you'll see any visible gain by eliminating a if (!length) {} check.

Hi,

The strlen() check on line 4730 of ext/standard/string.c is pointless
because of the length assignment in line 4720. Below is a patch (against
latest 5.2) to remove them.
