How did you created the table? Can you count the Id's only? Wouldn't this just count the entries in the index? On 28/01/2011 12:57, AmirBehzad Eslami wrote:
Dear list, The common solution for counting online users is to store sessions in a Table. I've created a Table in MySQL to acheive the result, but it seems this solution is a little heavy for such a simple task. Is there a better alternative? Can I use SqlLite to make COUNT(*) queries based on a where statement? Is there any better solution? Do you know any way to store sessions in Memory? Does Memcache support counting sessions? I'm looking for a high-performance solution to count online users. What do you think?
