storing data

Unfortunately when I was installing FreeBSD, its handbook told me that
/var should be around 256 MB or so.

Now, since /var is near to the edge of the hdd, it is fast and now I
can't store my 2 GB+ mysql data on /var.

I'm storing the mysql data on /usr partition which is 60 GB big.

Are there any performance implications on my approach ?

I have this problem: I have a database with information about games, and users are able to vote for them. Everytime a user votes for a game I store the unique game name into a session variable (an array). So if they are in a page were they already voted, they won't have the option to do so. The idea is that the session cookie lasts "forever", I don't want them voting for the same game everytime they get to the site. This isn't soo strict,...

I have a system that basically stores a database within a database (I'm sure lots have you have done this before in some form or another). At the end of the day, I'm storing the actual data generically in a column of type nvarchar(4000), but I want to add support for unlimited text. I want to do this in a smart fashion. Right now I am leaning towards putting 2 nullable Value fields: ValueLong ntext nullable ValueShort nvarchar(4000)...

Hi, I am currently writing a news admin system. I would like to add the ability to add images to each article. What I have always done in the past is uploaded (using a form) the image to a folder on the server and then in the database table that I INSERT the news article, I'll store the path of the uploaded image. To me this seems a bad idea as if the image paths were changed on the

Is it possible to store the data in a datatable in the hard disk instead of the memory? By default, when a datatable's being filled, the table (and data) will remain in memory. Would it be possible to save this data in another medium besides the memory? Everything would stay the same but instead of filling up the datatable by storing it in the memory, i'd be storing it somewhere in the hard drive. Thanks.

What would give better performance, serializing a multidimensional array and storing it in a single entry in a table or storing each element of the array in a separate table and associating the entries with the entry in the other table? Having a separate table would result in two queries instead of one, but you wouldn't have to deal with the overhead of serializing and unserializing data. -- Kyle

User wants to go this route instead of storing pointers in the DB and the documents outside. Only time I tried it was with only MS Word docs - and that was a loooong time ago - and it seemed to me like there were performance issues at the time. How about the different types? The MS docs I would expect Access to differentiate and handle appropriately (i.e. .DOC and .XLS).. but how about ..PDF? and can I stash a .TXT document in the...

I have developed an application, for psyc patients.... they type in very personal information in a web form to help them work through problems in their lives.

I personally feel that it's a bad idea. I've got to convince managerial types of this. Would some of you mind posting comments for and against the concept of storing data in XML attributes? If you've got nothing good to say for it, I'm OK with that too. Thanks ahead of time for your input. ~G

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
