Hi,
I have a site, http://rayh.co.uk which is basically my personal home
page
and nothing more than a hobby.
However, on the site, i am currently storing images in the database, purely
because i can. But i wonder, how much will the server load be affected when
pulling binary data out of the database? compared to the file system? i
assume its going to be quite a lot higher. DO you reckon it would be better
to scrap that and store the images on the file system?
