Hello, I have a user table that stores their username, email address, and password. (along with salt, etc)
However, now I want to have more complex information associated with each user (address, etc). I'm no DBA expert, so in terms of performance, which is better: - A user table that has all the fields in it (Username, Email, password, country, state, zipcode, etc) - A user table that only has username/password/email, that is connected via a foreign key to another table that stores all the other fields. Which is better? And why? Thank you -David Zhu -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
