OK OK, I have to mention, that I actually do
'pagination', so I won't have such large result sets
;-) I just wanted to know what the most elegant way to
handle results is, because I somehow didn't feel that
comfortable transfering result sets into arrays!
I also consider moving to a different database
abstraction layer like pear::db or something... what
would you recommend me? I don't have time to evaluate
all the possibilities ;-)
