Quick Table Stats?

[eluser]zimco[/eluser]
You're right! I did a SELECT * FROM mytable then the query->num_rows()

If you’re grabbing everything from the table and then counting it, it will definitely be slow.

Thanks for the heads-up on the active record class>>count_all function. That was exactly what i was looking for! The user guide is amazing, maybe someday i'll remember to keep reading the whole section i'm in, before jumping right back into coding.

Thanks!
