Description:
------------
I notice, that speed of method invocation for PHP5.5.0alpha3 is significantly slower than for PHP5.4 when running the script with internal Development Server. However, for CLI-mode PHP5.5.0 is faster than PHP5.4.10, as expected.

To reproduce the issue, please start the development server and execute test script in the browser.


Test script:
---------------
class TestPerformance {

    public function speed()
    {
        $time  = microtime(true);
        $this->nop();
        echo 'Took ', sprintf("%0.3fms to call method", (microtime(true) - $time) * 1e3);
    }

    protected function nop() {}
}

$instance = new TestPerformance;
$instance->speed();

Expected result:
----------------
Expecting that method invocation will take microseconds to finish:
php-5.4.10-Win32-VC9-x86:
  Took 0.005ms to call method
php-5.5.0alpha3-Win32-VC9-x86:
  Took 0.00Xms to call method

Actual result:
--------------
Method invocation for 5.5.0alpha3 took millisecond to finish:
php-5.4.10-Win32-VC9-x86:
  Took 0.005ms to call method
php-5.5.0alpha3-Win32-VC9-x86:
  Took 1.008ms to call method
php-5.5.0alpha3-nts-Win32-VC9-x86:
  Took 1.000ms to call method

Update PHP version for issue manually (There isn't alpha3 in select).

I can not reproduce this, do they (5.4 and 5.5) share the same php.ini configure?

I think maybe due to output buffer.
 [2013-01-17 10:35 UTC] lisachenko dot it at gmail dot com 
Yeah, detected the issue. 

Configurations were the same for all installations (default configuration), so this issue doesn't relate to the output buffering. Just to be sure, I have compared output for "php -i" for all installations, there were only differences in REQUEST_TIME, build version and ... presence of loaded php.ini file for PHP5.4.10. 

If php.ini file is present (settings are still default) and loaded, then speed of method invocation is higher... Amazing ) Without php.ini (but with the same default settings) speed is lower for internal development server.

This can be reproduced with PHP5.4.10 too. So this performance bug is more general.

How about change to this:

class TestPerformance {

    public function speed()
    {
        $time  = microtime(true);
        $this->nop();
        $end   = microtime(true);
        echo 'Took ', sprintf("%0.3fms to call method", ($end - $time) * 1e3);
    }

    protected function nop() {}
}

$instance = new TestPerformance;
$instance->speed();

Rewriting the source code in that way fixes the issue and execution time is about 4us. But how presence of php.ini with default settings can be related with the speed of method invocation for my case?

Can you reproduce it with my code and my php.ini http://pastebin.com/zDNvzuvg ? Here is the difference for php -i for loaded/unloaded php.ini http://pastebin.com/BrxBaTJ0 Speed of execution for my previous code block is not equal (5us and 1ms)

as I said, due to output buffer
