numero = 66677
interpreted = N
texte = We have customers with huge databases (100MB for 180.000 records), mostly because every single record includes large text descriptions.I split the database in two parts: one with the text descriptions, the other with the remaining data, linked with the sku record. It is easy to do.As a result, a search takes less than one second, and the system is very responsive (dual G4 Xserve).I am not sure we can compare MySQL/php with WebDNA. WebDNA is a modern and easy to learn integrated system while MySQL/php is an "old school" programming language, in a sense you have to spend a lot of time trying to understand a cryptic language.I do not want to lower WebDNA programmers merits, but anybody with html skills could learn most of it in less than a week... and with WebDNA you can do 95% of what you could do with php/mysql...chris-------------------------------------------------------------This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list
