As some of you mention that implementing threads will make the DB work harder than the standard serial operations queries, let me ask you these then: * How often does your DB server(s)/cluster utilizes 100% CPU (SMP/MC), memory, and disk IO? * How long is the duration when 100% utilization occurs? * If you could implement threads and run those same queries in 2+ threads, the total time saved from queries execution is 1/2 sec or more, which is pass along as the total response time reduced. Is it worth it for you implement threads if you're a speed freak? (I remember a list member, not mentioning his name, does optimization of PHP coding for just microseconds. Do you think how much more he'd benefit from this?) * If the requests are executed in parallel, the sooner the request fulfillment completes, the faster it is to move to the next request and complete it right? -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
