Hi all, I just discovered the gethostbyaddr() function. By reading the user contributed notes, I get the impression that either this function may cause performance problems, or a user-contributed function based upon it may be slow. So, is gethostbyaddr() slow? Is it dangerous?
I'm guessing that the speed is very much dependent on the speed of the underlying dns query mechanism - so probably yes, it's relatively slow. and not something you want to be doing many times within a single request. probably someone will now declare me a retard ;-)
