When you have objects stored on disk, it's usually very convenient to
read them on demand. However, MySQL is clearly not meant for this
purpose. Query overhead, complexity of SQL needed, and some other
limitation make object storage and retrieval a headache.
The question is, is it possible to write reasonably efficient OO
database in php? Two main factors would be:
1) Is is possible to make fast B-tree index search without writing any C
code?
2)How long does it takes for PHP to open 1 file? (It will need to open
hundreds of them.)
