Ok, I have a program that reads the contents of a file (1 line, 5 '|'
seperated items). Every so often (between twice a day, and 200 times a
day), it rewrites the contents of that file. I also do a few database
update queries whenever the file is written. I only open up the
database connector if I need to update the database. The script itself
runs every 30 seconds. My question, is that is it faster and more
efficient to read the file every time, or open the database connector
and make a query? The file name never changes, and I read the whole
file at one time (679 bites).
