Re: PHP cron job optimization

Use PHP threads. Do the job separately.. in parts... in other words... you can't read all them at once. You can read a little more about php multithreading here: http://blog.motane.lu/2009/01/02/multithreading-in-php/ You can use a non-relational database like mongo or couchdb to manage where you stop and where you have to look back to the RSS feed as well.
