tomdelonge Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 Do the names of the database, table, and field have very much impact on speed? If I have way long names will it be noticeably slower?

jxrd Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 I highly doubt it'll be noticeable slower. The time it takes for a computer to process one character must be like.... 1x10^-millions.

PFMaBiSmAd Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 Database, table, and field names should indicate the purpose or use of the database, table, or field. If you are using names much longer than about 20 characters, you are probably doing something wrong. Do you have an example?
