ASP/ODBC vs. PHP speed.

[Ben Goldstein]

Assume PHP is faster since FileMaker has written an api for it but has anyone run any acutal tests? Also does it hit the 50 connection limit when a lot of people hit it or does IIS pool the connections or does it even matter since it connects then immediatly disconnects after the page is finished loading..

It doesn't really matter lol... If you hit 50 connections simultaneously (i.e. within the same 2 second period), I think you're going to have more to worry about in the way of crazy FileMaker Server CPU utilization (this may or may not have been fixed, i'm going to go with not until somebody tells me different).

As for the rest, haven't done any speed comparison's so couldn't tell you :
