Summary of some key points to improve PHP operating efficiency

1. The speed of $row['id'] is 7 times that of $row[id]. This is also one of the problems we encounter most. Also, we pay attention to distinguishing the difference between single quotes and double quotes.

　　2. If you can define a class method as static, try to define it as static, and its speed will increase by nearly 4 times.

　　

　　 3. echo is faster than print, and uses multiple parameters of echo (annotation: refers to using commas instead of periods) instead of string concatenation, such as echo $str1, $str2.

　　4. Determine the maximum number of loops before executing the for loop. Do not calculate the maximum value every loop. It is best to use foreach instead.

　5. Unregister those unused variables, especially large arrays, to free up memory.

　6. Try to avoid using __get, __set, __autoload.

　7. require_once() is expensive.

8. Try to use absolute paths when including files, because it avoids the speed of PHP searching for files in include_path, and the time required to parse the operating system path will be less.

　9. If you want to know the time when the script starts executing (annotation: that is, the server receives the client request), it is better to use $_SERVER[‘REQUEST_TIME’] than time().

　10. Functions replace regular expressions to complete the same function.

　　11. The str_replace function is faster than the preg_replace function, but the strtr function is four times more efficient than the str_replace function.

　　12. If a string replacement function accepts arrays or characters as parameters, and the parameter length is not too long, then you can consider writing an additional piece of replacement code so that each parameter passed is a character instead of just Write a line of code that accepts arrays as parameters for query and replace.

　　13. It is better to use a selective branch statement (translation annotation: switch case) than to use multiple if, else if statements.

　　14. Using @ to block error messages is very inefficient, extremely inefficient.

　　15. Turn on the mod_deflate module of apache to improve the browsing speed of web pages.

　　16. The database connection should be closed when finished using it. Do not use long connections.

　　17. Error messages are expensive.

　　18. Increasing local variables in methods is the fastest. Almost as fast as calling local variables in a function.

　　19. Incrementing a global variable is 2 times slower than incrementing a local variable.

　　20. Increasing an object property (such as: $this->prop++) is 3 times slower than incrementing a local variable.
