I'm actually not doing translations. It just seemed like a convenient example! Essentially I'd like to be able to do a large amount of quick lookups without weighing down the system. > For something small that only lives on one machine, a dbm file will be > faster and easier to use. You can just SDBM_File to get started. Thanks for the tip, Perrin. Would you also recommend SDBM_File over the "global defined in the Mason handler" approach that was mentioned? > I would also point out that if you use MySQL it caches quick lookups > like this so they are extremely fast.

I am using MySQL, but an additional 50+ selects per web page, on top of other data retrieval, I thought might get me into trouble. This might be an incorrect assumption, though. Thanks for the replies, and I apologize if this is a little off-topic. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
