PHP Include Test

This project was designed to test the performance of PHP file includes using require, require_once, and include by creating a set of test files to include, timing each include method, and outputting the information. A shell script is provided to run the same tests on the host environment, a Docker container using a volume mapping, and a Docker container created from an image containing the test scripts without any volume mapping.

Usage

• Clone the repo
• Ensure docker is installed and running
• Ensure php (Dockerfile is using php 7.1 currently) is installed on host, using a different version will yield flawed results between host and Docker.
• Run ./docker_php_include_test.sh to test include functions only, ./docker_php_include_test.sh -m to run a memory test along in include files as well.

Contributing

This script was created based on some tests run by https://github.com/MarcelloOr in docker-library/php#493 to help confirm bottlenecks in local vs Docker volume mapped paths vs Docker Images w/o volumes. Pull requests and issues are welcomed, posting some comparison tests w/different hosts and docker setups would be helpful.
