Time me

Here's a quick tidbit to time something in PHP pretty accurately. Jotted down here for future posterity.




$mtime = explode(" ", microtime());
$starttime = $mtime[1] + $mtime[0];

// something worth timing...


$mtime = explode(" ", microtime());
$endtime = $mtime[1] + $mtime[0];
$totaltime = ($endtime - $starttime);


I didn't write it, and can't recall where I found it. But it works well. Enjoy.
