Hello there,

1-) You have to parse ini file in each execution. It was negative for 
performance. I suggest use plain php array

2-) To hide your config put it in out of html document root.

define('ROOTDIR', dirname(__FILE__).'/');
define("CONFDIR",ROOTDIR.'../config/');

require(CONFDIR.'config.php');
