blackfire: Run the profiler and collect 10 samples.
$ blackfire --samples=${10} run ${php filename-php}
try on your machine

The command you provided is using the Blackfire profiler tool to measure the performance of a PHP script.

Here is a breakdown of the command:

  • blackfire: This is the command-line tool that interacts with the Blackfire service.
  • --samples=${10}: This flag specifies the number of samples to collect during the profiling process. In this case, the value is set to ${10}, which suggests that the number of samples is taken from a variable named 10, potentially defined elsewhere in your script or environment.
  • run: This sub-command tells Blackfire to start profiling the specified PHP script.
  • ${php filename-php}: This is the path to the PHP script that you want to profile. It should be replaced with the actual filename of the PHP script, including the .php extension.

In summary, the command is instructing Blackfire to run the specified PHP script and collect performance samples using a specified number of samples.
