Is PHP able to handle sqlite data as inmemory DB?
I have a <50MB database and would like a php script to do SELECTs (and if possible also UPDATEs) to the sqlite without slow disk file reading or writing each time, the script is ran.
With java and c++ I know great use-cases, but how to force PHP to access the sqlite inmemory without reloading the file again and again?
There are multiple ways to do it:
Do nothing, and let the OS cache the database in disk caches / memory buffers. This is good if you have a small database (and <50 MB is small), and if you have lots of memory.
Use a
tmpfsand copy your database file in it, then open it in PHP.Use
sqlite://:memory:(but you will start from a blank database).
