WP_Theme_JSON::update_button_width_declarations( array $feature_declarations, array $settings ): array

Since
7.1.0
Source
wp-includes/class-wp-theme-json.php:3434
Updates button width declarations to use a calc() formula for percentage values.

Description

When a percentage width is set on the Button block via Global Styles, the resulting CSS needs to account for block gap spacing so that buttons tile correctly on a row (e.g. 4 buttons at 25% width all fit on one row).

This mirrors the dynamic calc() formula applied at the block instance level in the button block's stylesheet (style.scss).

Performance profile

How much work a call to WP_Theme_JSON::update_button_width_declarations() 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
Light

Touches nothing outside its own arguments.

Scaling
Scales with input

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

Instructions

Nothing here hands control to plugin code.

Nothing in core calls this; the cost is only what you spend yourself.

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_Theme_JSON::update_button_width_declarations() can have, taken from its control-flow graph on PHP 8.5.

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.
