The difference between a conventional fileserver reading the data from a 
static file and a PHP server script reading the data from a mySQL table 
will be too small to be noticed. The tiny difference will be swamped by 
the time taken to transfer the data over the Internet, and that transfer 
is going to take exactly the same amount of time either way.

If your file ever gets so large that you need to filter the data, then 
you start to get a big speed advantage by filtering the data with WHERE 
or LIMIT clauses in your SQL SELECT statement, so that only the selected 
data gets transferred across the Internet.
