[cobalt-users] Off Topic Question asp vs php



Hi

I have a site on a Cobalt Raq4 that has a mysql backend database. This
database has roughly 20,000 records. The RAQ4 has 768MB of memory

At present the site uses ASP, and what I find is a page that queries the
database in ASP can take 30 seconds to return the records.

I recreated the functionality and the sql query in php and the response
time is down from 30 seconds on a 512KB link to around 4 seconds.


What is the view on the best way to connect to a mysql database on a
RAQ4? The asp site uses ODBC currently. Obviously something is wrong.


Kind Regards

PS. The site can be found at http://www.destinationsuk.com if anyone
wants to take a look. Try selecting Surrey, then Go_eat, then all
records to see what I mean.
