note 76142 deleted from function.fopen by danbrown

Note Submitter: Elliott Brueggeman ---- I did some basic performance testing of fopen() + fread() versus file_get_contents() when opening a remote file for reading, and it looks like fread() is actually a little bit faster than fopen(). While it may be because of my GoDaddy hosting server’s configuration, it makes me favor using fopen() over file_get_contents(). Fopen() also has the added benefit of greater PHP version compatibility. Test results: http://www.ebrueggeman.com/php_benchmarking_fopen.php
