Useful for debugging slow scripts and optimizing frameworks.

• Simple start / stop stopwatch
• Supports nested measurements
• Aggregated measurements for repeating functions
• Plain text report

Exception handling

The Stopwatch will throw an exception on any anomaly. However, by default these exceptions are silently ignored.

In order to set a custom handler use:

StopwatchException::setExceptionHandler(StopwatchExceptionHandling $handler);

For complete list of exceptions, see /src/Exception directory.

API

Simple usage

Use the pair of methods Stopwatch::start(string $name) and Stopwatch::stop(string $name) to measure elapsed time.
The string $name is used to name and identify the measurement and it must match across the two methods.

Stopwatch::stop(string $name) returns an instance Measurement, which holds the information about the measurement.

Example:

Stopwatch::start('Init');
// ...
$measurement = Stopwatch::stop('Init'); // Returns an instance of Measurement

// Available options
$measurement->getStart();    // The start time of the measurement, in milliseconds 
$measurement->getEnd();      // The end time of the measurement in milliseconds 
$measurement->getTime();     // The total time elapsed in milliseconds 

Nested

Nested measurements allow you to get more details where the time is spent, but also to easily know the total time spent. Level of nesting is not limited.

Example:

Stopwatch::start('Total');
    // ...
    Stopwatch::start('Init');
        // ...
    Stopwatch::stop('Init');
    
    Stopwatch::start('Database');
        Stopwatch::start('Connection');
            // ...
        Stopwatch::stop('Connection');
        
        Stopwatch::start('Read');
            // ...
            Stopwatch::start('Cache');
            	// ...
            Stopwatch::stop('Cache');
        Stopwatch::stop('Read');
    Stopwatch::stop('Database');
$measurement = Stopwatch::stop('Total');

// The total time elapsed in 'Total', in milliseconds
$measurement->getTime();                       

// The list of direct children measurements ('Database' and 'Rendering'), with same API as this measurement
$subMeasurements = $measurement->getChildren();

Aggregated

If a certain function is called multiple times, measure the total time.

$loops = 10;
while ($loops--) {
	Stopwatch::startAggregate('loop');
		// ...
	Stopwatch::pauseAggregate('loop');
}

// Get the instance of AggregateMeasurment
$aggregateMeasurement = Stopwatch::getAggregatedMeasurements()['loop'];

$aggregateMeasurement->getTotal()	// The total elapsed time, in milliseconds
$aggregateMeasurement->getCount()	// The number of loops

Print summary

Print the summary of all measurements as plain text: $measurement->report().

<pre><?php echo $measurement->report() ?></pre>

From the nested example above, will produce:

Total: 100
├───Init: 9
└───Database: 91
	├───Connection: 76
	└───Read: 15
		└───Cache: 3

TODO

1. Tests.
2. Improve the print summary.
