Has anyone looked at doing that? If MySQL has implemented "cursors" in some new version, you have just described a "cursor"... There may be something else in MySQL to do this, mind you, but that's the easiest way I know of in other DBs... I suppose you could try with a shell script and pipes and files and using "&" with exec() but any savings from MySQL would probably be dwarfed by the exec() call... Are the queries actually SLOW and killing your site, or are you just performance-wanking? -- Some people have a "gift" link here. Know what I want?
