Embeds #26929, #27009 and #27028, let's focus on the 4th commit for now.
This is my last significant PR in the Cache series :)
By using integer expiries internally, our current implementations are sensitive to abrupt transitions when time() goes to next second:
$s = time(); sleep(1); echo time() - $s;
can display 2 from time to time.This means that we do expire items earlier than required by the expiration settings on items.
This also means that there is no way to have a sub-second expiry. For remote backends, that's fine, but for ArrayAdapter, that's a limitation we can remove.
This PR replaces calls to
time()
bymicrotime(true)
, providing more accurate timing measurements internally.
