Okay, then all is fine - it's expected to be a bit slower. But please, do not use a setting like US/Eastern, use America/New_York or similar. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-12-13 13:27:14] renffeh at yahoo dot com I added E_STRICT to the error reporting and saw the messages about the time zone, so I added "date.timezone = US/Eastern" to my PHP.ini and now my execution time is 0.125. Adding 'date_default_timezone_set("US/Eastern");' to my script brings it down to 0.095. Still slower, but much better. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-12-13 13:15:38] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please answer to Derick. Thanks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-12-13 13:11:49] renffeh at yahoo dot com I just checked this on PHP 4.4.1 and the execution time was similar to that of 5.0.5 Mike ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-12-13 13:00:56] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Do you have error reporting set to E_ALL | E_STRICT? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-12-13 12:57:12] renffeh at yahoo dot com Description: ------------ Has the date function slowed from PHP 5.0.5 to PHP 5.1.1? When testing with the code below, my output is: PHP 5.0.5: 0.044 PHP 5.1.1: 0.938 If I comment out the $d = ... line, my output is: PHP 5.0.5: 0.003 PHP 5.1.1: 0.001 ...so I know it's the date function that is responsible for the slower time. Has anyone else seen evidence of this? (I'm using Windows XP SP2 with the PHP Zip packages) Mike Heffner Reproduce code: --------------- <?php function get_microtime() { list($usec,$sec) = explode(" ",microtime()); return((float)$sec + (float)$usec); } $t1 = get_microtime(); for ($x=0; $x<10000; $x++) { $d = date("Y-m-d H:i:s"); } $t2 = get_microtime(); printf("%.3f\n",($t2-$t1)); ?> ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=35658&edit=1
