With this code (please test it for any database that has large number of
records and columns):
function microtime_float()
{
list($usec, $sec) = explode(" ", microtime());
return ((float)$usec + (float)$sec);
}
echo "<font color='green'>1. mysql_fetch_assoc() +
array</b></font>";
$link = mysql_connect(HOST,USER,PASS);
mysql_select_db(DB,$link);
$result = mysql_query("SELECT ... FROM ... ORDER BY '...' DESC LIMIT
300");
mysql_close($link);
$start = microtime_float();
while($tab1 = mysql_fetch_assoc($result))
{
}
$stop = microtime_float();
echo "<BR><BR>".($stop - $start)." [s].";
echo "<BR><BR><font color='green'>2. mysql_fetch_row +
array</b></font>";
$start = microtime_float();
while($tab2 = mysql_fetch_row($result))
{
}
$stop = microtime_float();
echo "<BR><BR>".($stop - $start)." [s].";
echo "<BR><BR><font color='green'>3. mysql_fetch_row +
list()</b></font>";
$start = microtime_float();
while(list([variables for all 42 columns]) = mysql_fetch_row($result))
{
}
$stop = microtime_float();
echo "<BR><BR>".($stop - $start)." [s].";
echo "<BR><BR><font color='green'>4. mysql_fetch_row() +

while($info = mysql_fetch_row($result))
{
foreach($info as $field);
}
$stop = microtime_float();
echo "<BR><BR>".($stop - $start)." [s].";
echo "<BR><BR><font color='green'>5.

Description:
------------
"Note: Performance
An important thing to note is that using mysql_fetch_assoc() is not
significantly slower than using mysql_fetch_row(), while it provides a
significant added value. "
I compared mysql_fetch_assoc() and mysql_fetch_row(). These results show
that there is a huge difference between these functions.
