PHP 8.4.1 Released!

    La classe SplFixedArray

    (PHP 5 >= 5.3.0, PHP 7, PHP 8)

    Introduction

    La classe SplFixedArray fournit les fonctionnalités principales d'un tableau. La différence majeure entre un objet SplFixedArray et un tableau standard de PHP est que SplFixedArray doit être redimensionné manuellement, et n'utilise que des entier dans cette plage pour les index. L'avantage est qu'il utilise moins de mémoire qu'un tableau standard.

    Synopsis de la classe

    class SplFixedArray implements IteratorAggregate, ArrayAccess, Countable, JsonSerializable {
    /* Méthodes */
    public __construct(int $size = 0)
    public count(): int
    public current(): mixed
    public static fromArray(array $array, bool $preserveKeys = true): SplFixedArray
    public getIterator(): Iterator
    public getSize(): int
    public jsonSerialize(): array
    public key(): int
    public next(): void
    public offsetExists(int $index): bool
    public offsetGet(int $index): mixed
    public offsetSet(int $index, mixed $value): void
    public offsetUnset(int $index): void
    public rewind(): void
    public __serialize(): array
    public setSize(int $size): true
    public toArray(): array
    public __unserialize(array $data): void
    public valid(): bool
    public __wakeup(): void
    }

    Exemples

    Exemple #1 Exemple avec SplFixedArray

    <?php
    // Initialisation d'un tableau avec une taille fixe
    $array = new SplFixedArray(5);

    $array[1] = 2;
    $array[4] = "foo";

    var_dump($array[0]); // NULL
    var_dump($array[1]); // int(2)

    var_dump($array["4"]); // string(3) "foo"

    // Augmentation de la taille à 10
    $array->setSize(10);

    $array[9] = "asdf";

    // Réduction de taille de 2
    $array->setSize(2);

    // Les lignes suivantes émettent une RuntimeException : index invalide ou hors de l'intervalle
    try {
    var_dump($array["non-numeric"]);
    } catch(    RuntimeException $re) {
    echo     "RuntimeException : ".$re->getMessage()."\n";
    }

    try {
    var_dump($array[-1]);
    } catch(    RuntimeException $re) {
    echo     "RuntimeException : ".$re->getMessage()."\n";
    }

    try {
    var_dump($array[5]);
    } catch(    RuntimeException $re) {
    echo     "RuntimeException : ".$re->getMessage()."\n";
    }
    ?>

    L'exemple ci-dessus va afficher :

    NULL
int(2)
string(3) "foo"
RuntimeException: Index invalid or out of range
RuntimeException: Index invalid or out of range
RuntimeException: Index invalid or out of range

    As the documentation says, SplFixedArray is meant to be *faster* than array. Do not blindly believe other people's benchmarks, and beextra careful with the user comments on php.net. For instance, nairbv's benchmark code is completely wrong. Among other errors, it intends to increase the size of the arrays, but always initialize a 20 elements SplFixedArray.

    On a PHP 5.4 64 bits linux server, I found SplFixedArray to be always faster than array().
    * small data (1,000):
    * write: SplFixedArray is 15 % faster
    * read: SplFixedArray is 5 % faster
    * larger data (512,000):
    * write: SplFixedArray is 33 % faster
    * read: SplFixedArray is 10 % faster

    Memory usage for arrays of 1132766 ints (data derived from some 1kx1k img):
    Regular: 76453160B (67.5B/int)
    SplFixed: 18898744B (16.7B/int)

    In my application, SFA uses 75% less RAM, which is a life-saver.

    Speed comparison:
    Regular: 449ms
    SplFixed (resized before every element): 791ms
    SplFixed (fully preallocated): 392ms
    SplFixed (preall-d to 1M and then resized): 547ms

    Pros and cons:
    + much more efficient RAM-wise
    + a bit faster if max size is known
    ~ a bit slower if max size is only approximated
    - much slower if max size is not known
    - cannot be used with most array functions

    To sum up:
    SplFixedArray is a very good choice for storing giant amount of data, though only as long as you at least roughly know the size and can work without array functions.

    Note, that this is considerably faster and should be used when the size of the array is known. Here are some very basic bench marks:

    <?php
    for($size = 1000; $size < 50000000; $size *= 2) {
    echo     PHP_EOL . "Testing size: $size" . PHP_EOL;
    for(    $s = microtime(true), $container = Array(), $i = 0; $i < $size; $i++) $container[$i] = NULL;
    echo     "Array(): " . (microtime(true) - $s) . PHP_EOL;

    for(    $s = microtime(true), $container = new SplFixedArray($size), $i = 0; $i < $size; $i++) $container[$i] = NULL;
    echo     "SplArray(): " . (microtime(true) - $s) . PHP_EOL;
    }
    ?>

    Memory footprint of splFixedArray is about 37% of a regular "array" of the same size.
    I was hoping for more, but that's also significant, and that's where you should expect to see difference, not in "performance".

    getSize() and count() return the same value

    Be warned that SplFixedArray does not provide all of the main functionalities of array. For example, it does not support array_slice. SplFixedArray should be far more efficient at supporting such array operations than normal arrays (since it should be simply a contiguous slice). Check that all your main array functions are really supported before trying to use SplFixedArray instead of array. With JIT in PHP8, some loops to polyfill these are perhaps now realistic, but still not as fast as native functions.
