RE: [PHP] Best way to frequently check database?

To timeout users after 20 minutes, use a cookie which is set for 20 minutes.

I'm not exactly sure what you are attempting to limit on database: 100
entries per hour, per day, per year, concurrently?

Let's say I have a database that recieves new information about 6
times/minute and I want the database to be checked to frequently to limit
the maximum entrys to the database to.. let's say 100.
And also timeout users if their session has been inactive for, let's say 20
minutes.

But once again you can have problems with cookies, they're not reliable
(user can have cookies support turned off) and they tend to be good for
CSS attacks :(

You could have a timestamp updated in every access to a page, and then a
cron job to delete the entries with timestamps older than some interval
of time. But I guess that if your app will have tons of load, this is not
a very good solucion :)
