Return Values

By default, microtime() returns a string in the form "msec sec", where sec is the number of seconds since the Unix epoch (0:00:00 January 1,1970 GMT), and msec measures microseconds that have elapsed since sec and is also expressed in seconds.

If get_as_float is set to TRUE, then microtime() returns a float, which represents the current time in seconds since the Unix epoch accurate to the nearest microsecond.

function microtime_float()
{
    list(
$usec$sec) = explode(" "microtime());
    return ((float)
$usec + (float)$sec);
}

$time_start microtime_float();

// Sleep for a while
usleep(100);

$time_end microtime_float();
$time $time_end $time_start;

echo 
"Did nothing in $time seconds\n";

usleep(100);

$time_end microtime(true);
$time $time_end $time_start;

echo 
"Did nothing in $time seconds\n";
?>

Example #3 microtime() and REQUEST_TIME_FLOAT (as of PHP 5.4.0)

<?php
// Randomize sleeping time
usleep(mt_rand(10010000));

// As of PHP 5.4.0, REQUEST_TIME_FLOAT is available in the $_SERVER superglobal array.
// It contains the timestamp of the start of the request with microsecond precision.
