Question 16228 in Laravel Question posted in
The official Laravel Documentation can be found here.

Which is faster: save() or update() Laravel method?

I want to increment the calls / views for a blog. In the controller I have the following two lines:

$post->views = $post->views + 1;
$post->save();

I wonder if the update method might be faster?

Another question about incrementing. Is there a Laravel function that can be used to increment?

    In my opinion, both writing methods should be equally fast. Here is your second question. You can use increment()function.

    // 1.
Post::where('id', $id)->increment('views');
// 2.
Post::find($id)->increment('views'); 
// 3.
$post->views++;
$post->save();

    Both methods will be broadly the same, update() also calls save().

    From the EloquentModel API:

    public function update(array $attributes = [], array $options = [])
{
    if (! $this->exists) {
        return false;
    }
    return $this->fill($attributes)->save($options);
}
