I am calling $this->Member->findAll(null, 'Member.id') on a database
of 8000 records and am receiving the following error:

Allowed memory size of 16777216 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 782
bytes) in /home/web88/html/cake/libs/model/datasources/dbo_source.php
on line 312

I assume this error is happening because the server is loading too
many records into the array.  The issue here is that I need to take
all the member records and insert them into a .csv file, so I cannot
use the SQL 'LIMIT' function as that will mean that only a portion of
the records will be imported into the csv.

Just wondering if I am taking the right approach here or if there is a
function in CakePHP which will allow me to load one record at a time
and then iterate through the records in the database to avoid loading
all the records into one array at a time?  If not, is there a best
practice in CakePHP to deal with this kind of problem?  I was thinking
of using a for next loop in combination with findAll() using the SQL
'LIMIT' function to keep the returned records to a limit of 50, and
then looping through the database this way until all the records have
been processed.  I just wasn't sure if this is the right approach to
take, it seems like a messy work-around. Is there a simpler approach
that I've completely overlooked?

Thanks!
