Re: Text database instead of MySql (Recommendations / Advise also welcome)

Hey, > quantify 'high traffic'. Millions of hits per day, hundreds if not thousands of GBs transferred _per day_ sounds like high traffic? :-D ------------------- you might consider telling the client that the implementation of a high traffic site should not be constrained from the outset by something as petty as MySQL not being installed?---------CAnt ask for anything to be installed, thats the deal.--------------- then you have things like the APC for caching data/stuff in shared memory (and caching compiled php files) ... oh and APC kicks ass :-)...... and if your on a *nix system don't forget that you have tmpfs, usually found at /dev/shm - which is ammounts to a RAM disk, i.e. disk IO is pretty quick ;-)--------------I dont have access to the whole server...just from and upwords the public_html folder or in other words the "web folder"> did you consider the sqlite extension already?Actually no, have heard of it but have not used it...like I said, very little experience with anything else other than MySql for my database needs.Cheers,Ryan
