Don't do it. You'll kill the webserver. It's also just an incredibly
bad way of doing it.

You should be forming queries that limit the resultset and provide the
results on demand.

With MySQL you can do something like...

SELECT foo FROM bar LIMIT x,y

.... where x and y are the start record, and number of records to grab.
