Shadowing Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 Hey guys i have a question not sure where to really ask this at. Im going to make my own ajax chat and i notice someone made one with out using mysql by reading and writing .txt files. Would that be more light weight doing it that way then using mysql? I dont see why it would be. on a level enough to do it so you cant use the awesomness of mysql i mean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarPlo Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 Hi If you have little data to read and parse, lets say 500K, it is faster to work with TXT files that with MySQL, because you not need an extra aplication and connection. For an easy reading of data, you can save in JSON format, or SVN. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
