I have been using mssql_ functions on my app, but finally have succumbed to requests from members of SO to change to PDO functions.
However the microsoft PDO driver is very slow, a request to return 20 rows from a table with 10,000 records takes between 5 and 10 seconds, with mssql_ functions it took milliseconds.
Does anyone have a solution to this?
I’m not sure if this is the ideal solution, but I turned off connectionpooling in the connection string and it seems to have solved my performance issues.
