I understand.  Sounds to me like something that exports data like this
is not suited to be a action within a controller.  Maybe you should
look into making this a Cake shell task, as that would let you use all
the Cake goodness and be able to run from the command line.

Either that or you'll have to run queries using LIMIT and OFFSET to
grab what you need one chunk at a time.  I don't know any scripting
language that handles sucking in 600,000 records via a web page.

For a guy who calls himself "Just another PHP saint", that's quite a
bold statement.  Good thing my life doesn't revolve around worrying
about what ignorant people think about me.

Yes, I do use CakePHP.  Otherwise I'd be wasting my time here.  Don't
blame me for failing to understand what your problem is.  Maybe you
should look into how you're asking your questions.
