Hi list On my on-rev account I have a LC script that calls a php script via the shell, and the php dumps the content of a mySQL db. Then another LC script (triggered later by another cgi request) builds a zip archive (using revzip) of the dump + a few small files. This scripts have been running for years without problem, even if the size of the db dump was constantly growing. Then suddenly a couple of days ago, the 2nd script (building the zip archive) started returning a "504 gateway timeout" error.
As a solution, I modified the 1st script (php) to dump & gzip the db content in one single pass. And to my surprise, this didn't return any error, but is also twice faster than the 2nd LC script that was only zipping the content of the dump. This was a surprise because I thought that dumping + zipping would be a heavier task than zipping only, and would take more time... Any rational explanation for that ? Thanks in advance jbv _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
