The intent here is to benchmark different PHP routing solutions. This is a micro-optimization, done purely out of dumb curiosity.
Clone the repo, run composer install, run php run-tests.php.
You can install the Pux extension to test that as well. See Pux docs for more info.
The current test creates 1000 routes, each with a randomized prefix and postfix, with 9 parameters each.
It was run with the Pux extension enabled.
An example route: /9b37eef21e/{arg1}/{arg2}/{arg3}/{arg4}/{arg5}/{arg6}/{arg7}/{arg8}/{arg9}/bda37e9f9b
This benchmark matches the last route and unknown route. It generates a randomly prefixed and suffixed route in an attempt to thwart any optimization. 1,000 routes each with 9 arguments.
This benchmark consists of 12 tests. Each test is executed 1,000 times, the results pruned, and then averaged. Values that fall outside of 3 standard deviations of the mean are discarded.

This benchmark tests how quickly each router can match the first route. 1,000 routes each with 9 arguments.
This benchmark consists of 6 tests. Each test is executed 1,000 times, the results pruned, and then averaged. Values that fall outside of 3 standard deviations of the mean are discarded.
