in working on optimizing my website I have read many posts on these 2 functions, and it seems to be split down the middle as to which is faster. in my case I found that if you need to check for many replacements in one go, then strtr is faster. for example I am doing this kind of thing $text = strtr($text, array('é' => 'e', 'È' => 'E', 'Â' => 'A')); plus another 20 replacements or so. I tested both functions 10 times each and strtr was faster 8 times. I would be interested to hear any one elses experiences here!

I've never measured one against the other for speed/performance but you may also add a regular expression to your tests to see how that performs too. The regular expression engine in the latest PHP5 releases has been quite impressive.
