Actually, the file in question is 3000 lines long, 99% in functions.
Im trying to tell him that he may not see any speed ups in code execution.
As long as I know Im right, its just the peace of mind when I go to bed
tonight :)

Subject: [PHP] Code Bulk
Im in a debate with someone else.
Basically were debating code bulk.
This is just an example -
?php
if (isset($run_this_code)) {
echo $this-run_this_code;
}
echo 'Finished';
?
Now, if I understand php correctly, the whole script gets parsed, but
since $run_this code isn't set, $this-run_this_code doesn't get
echoed/executed. What this other person is telling me that its more
effiecient for *him* to have -
?php
echo 'Finished';
?
instead.
The script is a general purpose script. Its not built for one person.
Some may use $run_this_code and some may not. So in taking out that bit
of code, all it does is save the parser, what fraction of a fraction of
a second??
Im just looking for ammunition so I could go and shoot this guy down... :)
Thanks for listening
