I have found array_unshift is a function that should be avoided when unshifting lots of data in large arrays. In a recent script I wrote, it took approx. 24 seconds to unshift 3500 timestamps to an array, a work around could be to use array_reverse and array_push. Array_push is much faster due to the indexing. -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.array-unshift.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+23132 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+23132 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+23132
