Sorry for the off topic question, but I'm not quite sure where else to find unbiased opinions on this. We currently have a cgi program, written in C, that is ran about 500,000+ times a day. Each time it is run, it reads from reads and writes to 2-5 flat text files. I am in the process of rewriting this program so to add more features and what not. I am wondering if it would be faster / more efficient if it were to use MySQL instead of flat text files (over 500,000 accesses daily) in the C version of the program, or would PHP or a combination of PHP/MySQL be faster? Any thoughts/ideas, or a reference as to where I could find such information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
