Grrr, i'm posting too fast ! Sorry for mistakes :) Hello, I've just performed a few tests when using PEAR::DB and the results weren't good at all. If I compare a script using PEAR::DB with a script using standard functions (and which supports mysql, pgsql and sqlite databases), the script using PEAR::DB is 10 times slower than the other. In one of my projects, it slows down execution time to 0.07 sec per page ! (original exec time was 0.006 sec) Conclusion : if you want to use PEAR::DB package, you'll probably will have to use cache systems for scripts that may be request often. Am I the only one annoyed by this loss of performance ? Because this is a huge loss in that case ! Greg
