如果你像这样格式化秒的输出，它会更漂亮:

echo "Process took ". number_format(microtime(true) - $start, 2). " seconds.";

将打印

Process took 6.45 seconds.

这比

Process took 6.4518549156189 seconds.

我写了一个检查剩余执行时间的函数。

警告:执行时间计数在Windows和Linux平台上是不同的。

/**
 * Check if more that `$miliseconds` ms remains
 * to error `PHP Fatal error:  Maximum execution time exceeded`
 * 
 * @param int $miliseconds
 * @return bool
 */
function isRemainingMaxExecutionTimeBiggerThan($miliseconds = 5000) {
    $max_execution_time = ini_get('max_execution_time');
    if ($max_execution_time === 0) {
        // No script time limitation
        return true;
    }
    if (strtoupper(substr(PHP_OS, 0, 3)) === 'WIN') {
        // On Windows: The real time is measured.
        $spendMiliseconds = (microtime(true) - $_SERVER["REQUEST_TIME_FLOAT"]) * 1000;
    } else {
        // On Linux: Any time spent on activity that happens outside the execution
        //           of the script such as system calls using system(), stream operations
        //           database queries, etc. is not included.
        //           @see http://php.net/manual/en/function.set-time-limit.php
        $resourceUsages = getrusage();
        $spendMiliseconds = $resourceUsages['ru_utime.tv_sec'] * 1000 + $resourceUsages['ru_utime.tv_usec'] / 1000;
    }
    $remainingMiliseconds = $max_execution_time * 1000 - $spendMiliseconds;
    return ($remainingMiliseconds >= $miliseconds);
}

使用:

while (true) {
    // so something

    if (!isRemainingMaxExecutionTimeBiggerThan(5000)) {
        // Time to die.
        // Safely close DB and done the iteration.
    }
}

$_SERVER[REQUEST_TIME“]

看看这个。即。

...
// your codes running
...
echo (time() - $_SERVER['REQUEST_TIME']);

如果你需要的是挂钟时间，而不是CPU执行时间，那么计算起来很简单:

//place this before any script you want to calculate time
$time_start = microtime(true); 

//sample script
for($i=0; $i<1000; $i++){
 //do anything
}

$time_end = microtime(true);

//dividing with 60 will give the execution time in minutes otherwise seconds
$execution_time = ($time_end - $time_start)/60;

//execution time of the script
echo '<b>Total Execution Time:</b> '.$execution_time.' Mins';
// if you get weird results, use number_format((float) $execution_time, 10) 

注意，这将包括PHP等待外部资源(如磁盘或数据库)的时间，而max_execution_time没有使用这个时间。

如果你像这样格式化秒的输出，它会更漂亮:

echo "Process took ". number_format(microtime(true) - $start, 2). " seconds.";

将打印

Process took 6.45 seconds.

Process took 6.4518549156189 seconds.

要显示分钟和秒，您可以使用:

    $startTime = microtime(true);
    $endTime = microtime(true);
    $diff = round($endTime - $startTime);
    $minutes = floor($diff / 60); //only minutes
    $seconds = $diff % 60;//remaining seconds, using modulo operator
    echo "script execution time: minutes:$minutes, seconds:$seconds"; //value in seconds
