You can import GeoLite City database into MySQL as well. GeoLite's binary database appears to be very fast, the best generic MySQL solution for fetching location by IP I've come up with was 2-3 times slower than their binary database (using MyISAM, query cache was off).
But for more specific cases (IPs coming from database, in huge amounts, for example), in theory, it's possible to make MySQL perform better by making use of a single query for mass-lookup. 2007/8/7, Fran Simó <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > > > In the Bakery I found this > http://bakery.cakephp.org/articles/view/quickly-translate-ip-to-geo-coordinates > After making my own code based on http://www.hostip.info/dl/index.html > within mySQL. :( > > GeoLite City seems to be more accurate than hostip.info.
