Many php functions are written using a temporary array which has 3 nasty side effects: - its less understandable - it kills both sql server and php "server" by inducing huge IO - its damages mysql.log which are HUGE because we find the data inside, introduce another slowdown, and prevent reading mysql.log USE SQL , dont subsitute php to myssql engine and it will be at least 10 time faster !
Please be more specific. With a generic comment it's not easy to work out whether you're seeing a deliberate optimisation or a performance problem.
