PHP中各种Hash算法性能比较

今天做的模块又用到了Hash函数，突然想起Hash函数可能会比较占CPU资源，所以希望使用一种速度最快的摘要函数。但是PHP中的Hash函数很多，MD4、MD5、SHA-1、SHA-256、SHA-384以及SHA-512，都是比较常见的安全领域的HASH应用。于是写了个程序对比了一下PHP支持的各种Hash函数：

 

<?php
define('testtime', 50000);
$algos = hash_algos();
foreach($algos as $algo) {
    $st = microtime();
    for($i = 0; $i < testtime; $i++) {
        hash($algo, microtime().$i);
    }
    $et = microtime();
    list($ss, $si) = explode(' ', $st);
    list($es, $ei) = explode(' ', $et);
    $time[$algo] = $ei + $es - $si - $ss;
}
asort($time, SORT_NUMERIC);
print_r($time);
?>

 

此程序测试每种hash函数支持的算法，对50000个字符串执行hash计算，然后将耗时按从低到高排序，结果如下：

CRC是冗余验证算法，不适合用来做唯一标识符Hash计算，MD4是最快的摘要算法，MD5次之，SHA系列算法居然是SHA-256最快，比SHA-1还快一些。由此得出结论：要把唯一标识符转换成定长字串可以考虑使用MD4，而密码加密则SHA-1或SHA-256更合适。MD5就没有多少使用的必要了，速度比不过MD4，安全性比不过SHA，还是趁早放弃的好。
