Re: destructors

i am aiming to log _everything_ of _everyone_. i figured by doing this, i won't have to go back later should i find out that i needed some specific information... i am not quite sure what the limitation of my database server would be as there is little data in there right now, but i can only assume that if i try to do a huge select (something like: "SELECT * FROM page_view WHERE userid = $userid AND previous_page = $current_page") over say a few million records of this (if not a few hundred million), things could get a little bit slow... and if i have to do this _everytime_ that a user views a page, i'm probably hosed. :P ps. thanx for the prompt reply! :) ---------------- remco chang bountyquest.com On Fri, 11 Aug 2000, David VanHorn wrote: > At 05:18 PM 8/11/00 -0400, Remco Chang wrote: > >yeah, that definitely seemed like the easiest way to do it. however, it > >also means that i'm putting a huge strain on the database especially > >when/if i start getting some traffic... > > Shouldn't be any big deal. > Where you put all that data might be, but then again, look at apache's log > file. > Wordier than war and peace.
