Probably discussed to death 10 years ago, 5 years ago, one day ago. I don't know. Can't find definitive answers.

Wondering...

Does anyone think or dare I ask does anyone "know" if one type of variable structure is faster or less resource intensive than another? In particular, I have an app where I am using client variables for a lot of very simple integer values. I could just as easily use session.

The client storage option is a database and so, the larger the number of client variables in the app, and the larger the number of users (visitors), then the larger that database becomes. Again, these are simple values such as one char text values, 1-8 digit integers, etc., Nothing complex.

So, does anyone have strong feelings as to which structure would be better for purposes of speed (overall page load), and system resources - larger database for client variables versus more memory used for session?
