Hi,
I have a situation where, within a PHP loop, I am creating over one hundred SQL
statement (INSERTS and UPDATES).
Would it cut any overhead to send 20 ";" seperated queries in one mysql_query()
statement, and therefore only execute mysql_query() 5 times for 100 statements, as
opposed to sending each statement individually?
So,
mysql_query("INSERT 1", "UPDATE 1...", "INSERT 2...", "UPDATE 2..");
or:
mysql_query("INSERT 1");
mysql_query("UPDATE 1...");
mysql_query("INSERT 2...");
mysql_query("UPDATE 2..");
Do you save by not making as many connections?
Thanks
Andy.
