Today, in the never-ending quest to tweak server performance by a few milliseconds, I decided to do a bit of testing of various php hashing methods. I therefore wrote a quick script under php (5.2.11 currently, I need to update), which ran each test case 10,000 times to achieve a decent min/avg/max for each case, on strings of 10KB, 100KB, and 1,000KB in size.
