Far as I know PHP uses the MySQL libraries and that SHOULD (again, I'm NOT sure) take away some of the extra overhead ODBC has and it should thus be faster with PHP. (Assuming you don't run PHP on a windows box, in which case you might need to use ODBC as well, but again, not sure about that, I never use any of these on windoze machines.... why get things so complicated when it runs so smooth with apache/php/mysql under linux...)
