I agree it's going to be negligible, but even so the difference does
exist. The real question is which is faster between:

include "path/$file"

and

include 'path/' . $file

Can the compiler handle the in-line variables quicker than string
concatenation? It'll take a C guru who knows the PHP code well to
answer this fully.

Best regards,

Richard Davey
