wp_image_matches_ratio( int $source_width, int $source_height, int $target_width, int $target_height ): bool

Since
4.6.0
Source
wp-includes/media.php:721
Helper function to test if aspect ratios for two images match.

Compatibility

WordPress

PHP
7.4–8.6-dev
  • 6.7.7
  • 6.8.8
  • 6.9.7

Present in every tracked release (6.7.7 to 7.1.0), and compiles on PHP 7.4 through 8.6-dev.

Parameters

$source_widthint
Width of the first image in pixels.
$source_heightint
Height of the first image in pixels.
$target_widthint
Width of the second image in pixels.
$target_heightint
Height of the second image in pixels.

Return value

bool
True if aspect ratios match within 1px. False if not.

Performance profile

How much work a call to wp_image_matches_ratio() 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
26–36

Executed per call on PHP 8.5, depending on the branch taken. The body compiles to 45.

Plugin surface
None

Nothing here hands control to plugin code.

Called by
2

2 places in core call this, so the cost is paid more often than your own code shows.

What one call costs · 2 distinct outcomes

One number would be a lie: the work depends on which branch runs. These are every distinct cost wp_image_matches_ratio() 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: 45 instructions, 26–36 executed per call, 2 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.
