Performance profile
How much work a call to got_mod_rewrite() 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.

Touches nothing outside its own arguments.
No loop in the body: the same number of instructions runs whatever you pass in.
Executed per call on PHP 8.5. The body compiles to 10.
Third-party callbacks on 'got_rewrite' run inside this call, and their cost is not bounded by anything here.
4 places in core call this, so the cost is paid more often than your own code shows.

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 got_mod_rewrite() can have, taken from its control-flow graph on PHP 8.5.
| When | Instructions | Calls it makes |
|---|---|---|
| always | 10 | apache_mod_loaded(), apply_filters() |
Across PHP versions
Compiles the same on PHP 7.4, 8.1, 8.2, 8.3, 8.4, 8.5 and 8.6-dev: 10 instructions, 10 executed per call, 0 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.
Hooks and filters fired · 1
One hook fires while got_mod_rewrite() runs, in this order:
- apply_filters( got_rewrite )filterline 31 (+15 into the body)
Filters whether Apache and mod_rewrite are present.
Uses · 2
- apache_mod_loaded()Determines whether the specified module exist in the Apache config.
- apply_filters()Calls the callback functions that have been added to a filter hook.

- WP_Site_Health::get_test_authorization_header()Tests if the Authorization header has the expected values.
- got_url_rewrite()Returns whether the server supports URL rewriting.
- network_step1()Prints step 1 for Network installation process.
- save_mod_rewrite_rules()Updates the htaccess file with the current rules if it is writable.
