Q: 

File or database localization

In ASP.NET which is better performance wise;

  • Localization using the file based resx / resource system
  • Localization by retrieving translations from a database

Thanks

+1  A: 

Localization using the file based resx / resource system. No network latency.

Is that always the case, even when the translation list is very long? Won't a DB handle that better? Or is the latency always more.

A: 

Normally the I/O of file on local disk should have better performance than the I/O of database connection.
