Best way to add/insert to array in php

<?php
$array = array();
for ($x = 1; $x <= 100000; $x++)
{
    $array[] = $x;
}?>
takes 0.0622200965881 seconds

and

<?php
$array = array();
for ($x = 1; $x <= 100000; $x++)
{
    array_push($array, $x);
}?>

takes 1.63195490837 seconds

so if your not making use of the return value of array_push() its better to use the $array[] way.

Hope this helps someone.
