Purpose

A light-weight class for quickly benchmarking/timing/profiling PHP code., _(*1)

Basic Usage

/**
 * Start & Stop
 */
 include 'class.Bench.php';
 Bench::start();
 // [Some Code To Test]
 echo Bench::stop() . ' Seconds'; -> 2.13274598122


/**
 * Marks
 */
 include 'class.Bench.php';
 Bench::start();
 // [Application Bootstrap]
 Bench::mark('bootstrap');
 // [Database Connection Opened]
 Bench::mark('database');
 // [Data Processing + Manipulation]
 Bench::mark('processing');
 // [HTML Creation]
 Bench::mark('html');
 // [MISC]
 Bench::stop();

 // Get data on specific mark.
 print_r(Bench::getMarkById('database')); // ->
    Array (
         // The mark id.
         [id] => database
         // The microtime(true) of when this mark occurred.
         [microtime] => 1287969552.88
         // The time (in seconds) since start() was called.
         [since_start] => 1.10582304001
         // The time since the last mark [or] since start(), if first call to mark().
         [since_last_mark] => 0.171210050583

             )
         // Start microtime
         [start] => 1288060408.82
         // Stop microtime (if called)
         [stop] => 1288060409.95             
         // Time elapsed (in seconds)
