Cross database joins

2007-11-26 Thread Eric Frazier
Hi, I found one thread on this that included some people's opinions, but I haven't been able to find anyone who has actually done some performance testing to see if there is a cost and what that cost is to doing cross database joins. I do tend to want to keep everything in one DB

I've worked on projects before where splitting up the schema into databases was used. Joins across DB's are fine, but there is another place that the performance can hit you. If you use something like perl's Apache::DBI, you will increase the number of open connections to your database. That's

Many thanks. You filled in the missing piece for me. It appears to be working... at least with both databases on the same MySql server. I hope that putting one db on the file server and one locally does not prove to be problematic (that issue never occurred to me), but if worse comes to worse,
