Hah, you're going to have to learn to break that down a little more. What is the speed of the average request? How much of that is network delay? How much of it

Hah, you're going to have to learn to break that down a little more. What is the speed of the average request? How much of that is network delay? How much of it is the server taking to respond? PHP/MySQL don't seem like the optimal tools for serving video...
- jason_slack 16y agoLet me time some things and give more exact answers. I realize I am being vague! PHP and MySQL I use because I am comfortable with them. If you have suggestions, I am happy being uncomfortable to learn something new..
- andreyf 16y agoSorry, I didn't mean that as a criticism. I wrote my first web apps in PHP/MySQL, as well. If you're serving video, you should probably use YouTube or the like. Try to figure out "the life of a query": when you load a page in the browser, what happens? More to-the-point, how long does each step take? (if you want specific advice how to go about this, feel free to ping me - my e-mail's in my profile)
- jason_slack 16y agoOK, Thanks for the offer. I will e-mail you privately. I will explain plan my SQL and get a feel then time it in a browser when called from a PHP page and then again when I call it in the ajax box I am using... I appreciate your thoughts.
