TAANSTAAFL There certainly IS some overhead using PHP downloader script, and a straight link IS definitely more efficient. The correct question is "HOW MUCH more efficient" The correct answer is "You'll only know after you test on YOUR machine" Note that the bandwidth is probably gonna kill you long before PHP does, if you write a lean mean PHP application... If your PHP download script has to include 4,000 class files before it can do anything useful, well, no, it won't be fast. -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
