Well, there wasn't a test between For and While, so i did it myself,
and i'm quite confused about the result.
I let PHP count from 0 to 100000000 on my 1ghz AMD Athlon.
While did it in a average time of 55 seconds.
For did it in a average time of 59 seconds.
It's not a big difference, if you see what number it needs to go to,
but there is a difference.

code used:
<?php
set_time_limit(100000);
echo date("H:i:s");
for($i = 0; $i < 100000000;$i++)
{
}
echo date("H:i:s");
$x = 0;
while($x < 100000000)
{
	$x++;
}
echo date("H:i:s");
?>

So, use while loops instead of for loops ;)

ps. I also did the while loop before the for loop, doesn't matter.
