Iank1968 Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 I have a common.php file thats 4000 lines long and it boggs the server down big time. Can I use the $split function to break up the file and put less of a strain on the server when people play my game? I wasnt sure if I could post this here seeing its a VB function. I would appreciate any help on how to get this mamoth file into bite size pieces and still work.

wildteen88 Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 The size of the file (as in filesize or number of lines) has no affect on server load. However its the efficiently of the code that will have an affect. What do you have going on in common.php? Maybe there is something in there which is causing unnecessary load on the server.

Iank1968 Posted February 8, 2009 Author Share Posted February 8, 2009 the code isnt that efficient being self taught. Would it be better to use something like php tidy? I thought it was the size of the file that was making things difficult.

premiso Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 php tidy will not help. Chances are you code has loops that are not necessary etc. Stuff that can be condensed down and made to work more efficiently. The size, as stated by wild, does not effect how fast the script runs. It is all about how it is coded.

Q695 Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 That's why I love includes, and functions quite a bit. It also saves a lot on the organic RAM, and CPU.
