I've been given the bombed task of coming up with a pre-moderated threaded chat solution. I had implemented a moderated flash chat however with 100 users all making bulky comments to the chat guests, it became unbearable for the moderator to check them all off in time to make them cohesive to the discussion, as it was a java xml socket based flash chat therefore had no threading capabilities.

Now I dont particularly want to have to write something like this in php, I can just see the Apache 1.3 server with a Mysql backend grinding as there is no threading. What could be the best solution here ? I use special tricks these days to prevent page state changing when posting using XMLHTTP , well I am using a package called Aframe which uses Sajax but allows for OO based services, so this could be a solution for the posting mechanism.

However I would need to find the best solution which will use the less resources when posting, and refreshing, and adding moderated comments back into the chat thread in the position when it was posted possibly by the database primary key. If there is better ways either using sockets to another mechanism let me know.
