Which is just a link to http://www.dublish.com/articles/10.html
Sorry Time, but IMHO, the quality of information published therein is poor.
A lot of it is plain wrong. The bits that aren't aren't wrong all of the
time are wrong some of the time and no differentiation of context is
provided.It doesn't explain why some things are bad and some good. It
doesn't provide any supporting evidence.
http://phplens.com/lens/php-book/op...bugging-php.php is one of the
best articles I've seen on optimizing PHP. The only good free resource I've
seen for MySQL performance tuning is the MySQL manual (and it really is
good). For serious MySQL DBAs - get the O'Reilly 'High performance MySQL'
book.
But as usual, the best advice is to get information from more than one
source, and try stuff out yourself.
