Performance profile

How much work a call to WP_Customize_Manager::update_stashed_theme_mod_settings() does, and what it touches: the algorithmic scaling, the Zend instruction count per call across PHP versions, the hooks it hands control to, and the core code that calls it. Measured from the compiled opcodes, not a stopwatch, so every number is identical on any machine running the same PHP version, and every function in core is ranked by cost.

Cost class
Heavy

Reads stored settings via get_option(), cached per request but not free on a cold cache.

Scaling
Scales with input

The body loops, so the work grows with what you pass in.

Instructions
21–23

Executed per call on PHP 8.5, depending on the branch taken. The body compiles to 37.

Plugin surface
None

Nothing here hands control to plugin code.

Further down the call graph this can also reach query and transient. Those are the worst case, several calls deep and usually down an error path, not what a normal call pays.

What one call costs · 1 distinct outcome

One number would be a lie: the work depends on which branch runs. These are every distinct cost WP_Customize_Manager::update_stashed_theme_mod_settings() can have, taken from its control-flow graph on PHP 8.5.

Across PHP versions

Compiles the same on PHP 7.4, 8.1, 8.2, 8.3, 8.4, 8.5 and 8.6-dev: 37 instructions, 21–23 executed per call, 5 branches. The work does not change between versions.

An instruction is not a fixed amount of time, so a matching count is not necessarily the same speed; what it rules out is a difference in the work itself.
