I have been starting to write some reasonably large and or confusing MySQL queries in PHP. I am trying to find a balance between verbosity and performance... If performance has anything to do with it or not is my question.
It being white space and MySQL comments inside of my queries. It would make sense to me that PHP would filter the queries unessential white space and maybe even mysql comments inside of the query before it is sent but i'm not sure...
SO, SIMPLEY PUT:
Will white space and comments go over the wire to from PHP to MySQL if so does it really even matter in terms of performance?
I'm not looking for hard performance benchmarks or anything... but in general would like to know.
Thanks in advance :)
