Description:
------------
If there is a reference taken to an array ($b =& $a) then the
performance of array_key_exists($foo, $a) drops off enormously unless
array_key_exists($foo, &$a) is used.
(Note this is identical to #30295 which is marked as fixed in CVS but
doesn't appear to be fixed at all: it is found in both 4CVS and 5CVS)
Reproduce code:
---------------
Based on the code in bug #30295:
http://pastebin.com/733286
Expected result:
----------------
Time for the following operations should be approximately the same:
array_key_exists($i, $a);
$b =& $a; array_key_exists($i, $a);
$b =& $a; array_key_exists($i, &$a);
Actual result:
--------------
Time for
$b =& $a; array_key_exists($i, $a);
is significantly greater than for the others.
Sample times from running the reproduce code:
Test with no refs: 0.0012528896331787
Test with a ref to the array: 0.78344106674194
Test with a ref to the array and pass by ref: 0.0019340515136719
