texte = Hi,I have a customer who wants a site something like monster.com, basically a site with Jobs, but not as monstrous as monster.com.I estimate that probably the number of resumes should be around 4000 at the most.I downloaded a sample resume from monster.com, and it takes about 2.5 kb.Question:What's the best approach in storing resumes:1) store each resume html formated, something like [resumeID].txt, and than display it as a resume.tpl?ID=[resumeID] with an [include file=[resumeID].txt]OR,2) store all the data in the resume.db databaseOR,3) any of your suggestionsI would tend to use option 1) to decrease the RAM loaded size of the database. How would the access to the disk based resume affect performance in 1) vs. 2)Would searching still be possible (text search) for the [resumeID].txt files?TIA,Serban------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
