If you mean DB_ado (from http://pear.php.net/package/DB_ado) I can't say
anything about it because I haven't used it.
But if you mean ADOdb Database Abstraction Library for PHP (from
http://adodb.sourceforge.net/):
It should be somewhat faster if you use the extension, because of the
abstraction layer there is some overhead by using the class even when
the class itself also uses the extension. So if you need all the speed
you can get use the extension calls, but if you want a system where you
can easily adopt from one database to another, handy helping functions
for database specific date conversion and a nice sql query caching
system, you should use the abstraction layer.
