mike12255 Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 Ok, so basically someone submits a file (doc) and I need to see if it is the same as another file. So instead of opening 300+ files and checking for word similarity, I put the file info into a table called newnotes. Then check the file size for each of the notes in "newnotes" against all of the notes in the table "approvednotes" this could be something like matching 20 file sizes to 300+ file sizes. The user gets returned back to a page and this is all done in backend by the click of a button the admins can use. But would doing this slow down my server/website?

kickstart Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 Hi Probably be fine. You are only saving a small amount of info and only searching a tiny amount of info. If you do not want to use a database then you could just save the info in an array or object, and save a serialised copy of it.

mike12255 Posted January 25, 2011 Author Share Posted January 25, 2011 Thanks, guess what I should start doing is looking for a simple word->pdf converter that does not involve phplivedocx so i dont have to sign up for zend because I cant afford it.
