Performance profile

How much work a call to WP_Widget_Text::widget() 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
Trivial

Touches nothing outside its own arguments.

Scaling
Constant

No loop in the body: the same number of instructions runs whatever you pass in.

Instructions
93–135

Executed per call on PHP 8.5, depending on the branch taken. The body compiles to 149.

Plugin surface
3 hooks

Third-party callbacks on 'widget_title', 'widget_text', 'widget_text_content' run inside this call, and their cost is not bounded by anything here.

Called by
0

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

What it touches

  • hookthird-party callbacksapply_filters()called directly

Further down the call graph this can also reach option, cache, serialize, 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 · 56 distinct outcomes

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

This body has more branch combinations than are worth enumerating, so the table covers the outcomes found first rather than every one that exists.

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.

Hooks and filters fired · 3

3 hooks fire while WP_Widget_Text::widget() runs, in this order:

  1. apply_filters( widget_title )filterline 233 (+6 into the body)

    Filters the widget title.

  2. apply_filters( widget_text )filterline 283 (+56 into the body)

    Filters the content of the Text widget.

  3. apply_filters( widget_text_content )filterline 298 (+71 into the body)

    Filters the content of the Text widget to apply changes expected from the visual (TinyMCE) editor.

Uses · 9

  • apply_filters()Calls the callback functions that have been added to a filter hook.
  • has_filter()Checks if any filter has been registered for a hook.
  • remove_filter()Removes a callback function from a filter hook.
  • is_singular()Determines whether the query is for an existing single post of any post type (post, attachment, page, custom post types).
  • get_queried_object()Retrieves the currently queried object.
  • add_filter()Adds a callback function to a filter hook.
  • wpautop()Replaces double line breaks with paragraph elements.
  • shortcode_unautop()Don't auto-p wrap shortcodes that stand alone.
  • do_shortcode()Searches content for shortcodes and filter shortcodes through their hooks.
