Class declared in MODPATH/codebench/classes/kohana/codebench.php on line 11.

Properties

public string $description

Some optional explanatory comments about the benchmark file.

public array $grades

Grade letters with their maximum scores. Used to color the graphs.

public integer $loops

How many times to execute each method per subject.

public array $subjects

The subjects to supply iteratively to your benchmark methods.

Methods

public __construct( ) (defined in Kohana_Codebench)

Constructor.

Return Values

  • void

Source Code

public function __construct()
{
	// Set the maximum execution time
	set_time_limit(Kohana::$config->load('codebench')->max_execution_time);
}

public run( ) (defined in Kohana_Codebench)

Runs Codebench on the extending class.

Return Values

  • array - Benchmark output

Source Code

public function run()
{
	// Array of all methods to loop over
	$methods = array_filter(get_class_methods($this), array($this, '_method_filter'));

	// Make sure the benchmark runs at least once,
	// also if no subject data has been provided.
	if (empty($this->subjects))

		// results in buggy benchmark times correlating to the length of the method name.
		$reflection = new ReflectionMethod(get_class($this), $method);

		// Benchmark each subject on each method
		foreach ($this->subjects as $subject_key => $subject)
		{
			// Prerun each method/subject combo before the actual benchmark loop.
			// This way relatively expensive initial processes won't be benchmarked, e.g. autoloading.
			// At the same time we capture the return here so we don't have to do that in the loop anymore.
			$return = $reflection->invoke($this, $subject);

			// Start the timer for one subject
			$token = Profiler::start('codebench', $method.$subject_key);

			// The heavy work
			for ($i = 0; $i < $this->loops; ++$i)

	// these values will be overwritten using min() and max() later on.

	// unless your method runs for more than 31 years or consumes over 1GB of memory.
