Question

That´s a general question.
I need do retrieve the value of about 20 strings of about 100 characters each. Which of the following methods would be the quickest, in order to retrieve the variables?

1) reading from a separate include file, where the variables values are assigned (e.g. $var1 = “blablablah….”; etc)
2) reading from a text file
3) reading from a (small) database – e.g. doing a simple mysql query

And what about a slightly larger case, e.g. about 50 strings up to 300 characters each?

Thank you

It really depends on how much you value performance over practicality.
