I’m using PHP as my scripting language and mySQL as my database.
Im wondering if saving into database on form submit is better than saving on every keypress.
Which is better in terms of usability/ux and in performance?

    Saving on every keypress means:

    1. You’ll need a server capable of handling more requests
    2. You’ll need smarter logic then every key press as most people can press keys faster than most connections can round trip an HTTP request. Possibly something like “Every 30 seconds, but only if the data has been changed, but delayed until a response is received for the last request (or it times out)”.
