Which method is faster? - El Forum - 07-24-2011

[eluser]Wondering Coder[/eluser]
good morning,

Just want to ask a quick question to which is the best way for this..

Code:
First method

function Admin()

{

.......

        $user_id = $this->session->userdata('ad_userid');

        $cond = array('ad_userid' => $user_id);

        $data['admin_profile'] = $this->admin_db->getAdmin($cond)->row();

.....

}

Code:
2nd method

function Admin()

{

.......

        $cond = array('ad_userid' => $this->userid()); //get the data from MY_Controller

        $data['admin_profile'] = $this->admin_db->getAdmin($cond)->row();

.....

}

MY_Controller

{

...

    public function userid()

    {

        $userid = $this->session->userdata('user_id');

        if(!empty($userid)){

            $cond = $userid;

        }

        else{

            $cond = $this->session->userdata('ad_userid');

        }

        return $cond;

    }

}

Does using extended classes and accessing its function put a lot memory usage?

Why dont you use the benchmarking and figure it out for yourself?
