What you need to post is a minimal testcase.  If the 
testcase I outlined earlier doesn't behave badly on your 
system (which it does not on mine), You need to come up 
with a small reproduceable _complete_ test case.  Something 
that I can just cut and paste into a script to duplicate 
your results on my system.

Here's more of the code, previous to the loops:

$sentence="I acn run to the store adn sing without knowing why."

$num=0;
$num++; $spell[$num]=Array(" acn "," can ");
$num++; $spell[$num]=Array(" adn "," and ");
// there are about 800 of these types of corrections. I expect you dont
want me to include them all.

My tests today show a difference of .18 seconds to 3.4 seconds. That's
about 20X slower. Better for some reason, but still not optimal by a
long shot.

I see about a 20% overhead in executing the two loops with 
a no-op inside the loop.  This amount of overhead is 
expected (due to the fact that your are making an extra 
function call on every iteration).  Nowhere near 5000%.  
Tested on OSX with this:

<?php
  for($i=0;$i < 100000; $i++) {
    $array[] = '1';
  }
  for($i=0; $i < sizeof($array); $i++) {
    
  }
?>

vs.

<?php
  for($i=0;$i < 100000; $i++) {
    $array[] = '1';
  }
  $end = sizeof($array);
  for($i=0; $i < $end; $i++) {
    
  }
?>

Your code fragment is not complete, so I cant actually 
repliate your test.

Please reopen this issue. It still exists in version 4.3.0. I'm running
on OSX. The performance with a large array that uses sizeof() in a loop
is very poor. It's abut 50X slower than it should be.

The following takes 8-10 seconds:
for ($i=1;$i<=sizeof($spell);$i++) {
     $sentence=str_replace($spell[$i][0],$spell[$i][1],$sentence); 
}

Whereas the following takes only .18 seconds:
$end=sizeof($spell);
for ($i=1;$i<=$end;$i++) {
     $sentence=str_replace($spell[$i][0],$spell[$i][1],$sentence); 
}

No feedback. I problem exists with 4.0.5, reopen.

Could you please test your script with either the PHP 4.0.4pl1 release,
the latest PHP 4.0.5 RC or a current CVS snapshot from
http://snaps.php.net/? Thanks.
