every time my script is executed a line is added to a given image.
right now every image is saved as new file because it needs to remain
accessible in it's current state. at the moment there are only 200+
entries and the present image size is about 20 kb. but if i someday get
10'000 hits this would mean 200 mb of used disc space. (see
www.ipdraw.org)
therefore i thought it would be a more adequate way to write each
imageline() line into one text file and then as an archived entry is
requested generate the image by only including line 1 - $request_no.
since i already save a file containing some vars for each visitor maybe
something like this could be a possible solution:
$i = 1;
while ($i <= $request_no) {
$filename = "entry-" . $i . ".php";
include($filename); // contains $image, $ip and $color
imageline($image, $ip[0], $ip[1], $ip[2], $ip[3], $color);
$i++;
}
but as $request_no may potentially be 10'000 or higher i thought
including that much files could cause an unneeded slow down of the
whole thing.
maybe you know of a less screwy-logic method to do this (in a fast way).
thanks for your help!
