I have a PHP script that reads and updates either a small file or a

I would like to move this file to a variable for extra speed as the
file is causing a few problems being accessed so many times.
Is it possible to have a writeable variable that has the scope of
EVERY script that is run through the parser?
Not really. Your options are basically 1) use the database instead of
the file, or 2) try memcached (Google for it).

Hmmm caching really isnt an option here as the data is always changing.
Just a wild idea here.. would it cause major overhead if a script was to
start a session, update some session vars, then switch to a common
session_id that each script can access? Then use that session to store
to my info.
Would that cause any obvious problems?
