grep will have to scan the entire file every time. Not a good idea. You either need to store it all in memory, or use some kind of index. Memory options: Memcached, Redis, Custom data structure (PHP array, Ruby Hash, Python dictionary, etc) Indexed options: Postgres, MySQL, SQLite, BDB, etc. /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
