Thanks for your help!

That is just what I wana hear.

Actually, in most web applications, the real bottle-neck of performance
is the Database, but not the PHP scripts-of coz, I don't take obvious
mistakes.

So I don't wana write my application without OOP or functions, just for
this bit performance improvement. I need a well maintianed product.
