I am doing a PHP app and I need to read several xml files containing text and I want show it to the user. This is working without any problems.
The information stored in those files could be cached for a long time as it does not change too often. However, those files tend to be kind of heavy so it could be a bad idea to load them at every request. i'm trying to find a way to load the data in a lazy way maybe by using a singleton and store them somewhere. Si, I still have the following questions:
- where to store de data? as session parameters?
- how to do the lazy loading? using singleton? is that even a good idea in php?
Thanks a lot
