--- Calculating optimal packet size ----------
- Thread starter DaniDak
- Start date
Try a series of experiments with various packet sizes, and measure whatever it is you're trying to optimise.
I guess you're referring to this right?
So also vary other key parameters and try and figure out a minimising relationship, based on the results you get.
But are you sure you're optimising the right thing here? It seems to me that this isn't going to be the most expensive bit of the operation. Copying seems cheap compared to the actual SQL lookup which leads up to it, and the processing you do in your C code after it.
Vast improvements may have only a small effect on the overall performance.
