Computing-intensive, time-consuming and whatever else expensive
functions do ;-)

Perhaps you could use something a little more KISS- like
rawurldecode(chunk_split ( $hexstring, 2 , "%"))
not sure if it would be faster than base_convert or not, but it
wouldn't be too hard to find out.

I'd recommend writing a wrapper around base_convert, naming it hex2bin
and using that instead. base_convert() is way too expensive for this
purpose (you know that any hex figure is translated to exactly four
bits, so you don't need any actual conversion - just replacement). This
is why I sugge
Although the first comment was not what I needed, I did find another
built-in function that converts between any base, base_convert($number,
$frombase, $tobase) worked wonderful for what I needed.

Check the first comment in the manual under bin2hex.
