@NogDogNov 15.2009 — #Off-hand I don't know, and it might depend on a number of interrelated factors. Probably the only way to tell for sure in your particular situation is to try both ways with some metering in place to determine the difference, if any. (My instinct is that loading separate files requires some additional overhead, but then that might be offset by having to manipulate larger data sets for each operation, thus I don't know. ? )
PHP and XML
I have a website that uses PHP to parse XML files.
Several pages require two XML files: teams.xml (which is 14 KB in size) and players.xml (189 K?. Two pages require a third: “draft_top_2009.xml” (there WILL be a “draft_top_2010.xml”).
Would it allow for faster processing if I combined teams.xml and players.xml?
