Honestly, performance was not my primary concern, and my decision was out
of convenience. The specific app already had a [persistent] db connection
open for each page load, so the performance hit would be minimized. I
have little doubt that writing to the FS would be faster, but I also
wanted to simplify my configuration with PHP's "safe mode" and filesystem
restrictions. I really just liked the idea of keeping all of the dynamic
data in one place -- in the DB. And, if I remember correctly, the
implementation is about 30 lines of code long.
