Just tried serializing array of 256 booleans and printing the length, it really shocked me: 2458. This project will be used by about 500 students, so in the worst case (all students enroll all courses) it will eat 500 * 2458 (assuming one character eats one byte) = 1229000 Bytes ~= 1.2 MB. Not a big deal, eh? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/optimizing-space-for-array-of-booleans-tp22159131p22177808.html Sent from the PHP - General mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
