WinCacheGrind is a factor of 10 off... it hasn't been adjusted for a bug
fix in Xdebug from 2.5 years ago :-/ I can't explain why
df_sqlval/is_bool are so slow though... there are 300000 calls to those
functions though. It is quite possible that Xdebug might be doing
something odd. Can you perhaps make a function trace?
