maybe something along these lines ? I'm not sure how much str_pad should
count but it should take about the same amount of time for both the
functions

-------------------------

function foo($count, $pad) {

$str = '';

for($i=0; $i<$count; $i++)
$str .= str_pad($i, $pad , "___");

return $str;

}

function bar($count, $pad) {

$str = array();

for($i=0; $i<$count; $i++)
$str[]= str_pad($i, $pad , "___");

return implode('', $str);
}
-------------------------

using large $count and $pad

dunno if this is test is valuable... it's the first thing I thought to
generate big different strings, without using a constant and without
randomizing

bye
