I'm setting up a shopping cart for a jewelry store. I'm curious, what is performance limit for storing data in session variables?
The following are lists: Item No (itemID used in check out) Item Qty (in case someone wants more than one) Item Price Item Description (most descriptions about 50 characters. ex: "Ruby and gold drop-earrings") Most customers will not go above 3 or 4 items so I'm not concerned for this project. Just curious in general. At what point would storing data impact performance? Also, is updating session variables all that much quicker than updating a database. For example a customer wants two pairs of a particular earring instead of one. -- gil ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Special thanks to the CF Community Suite Gold Sponsor - CFHosting.net http://www.cfhosting.net Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:188911 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
