Need some help with Linux /proc and fread()

[BrandonTheG]

Hello,

In my previous script, krakjoe said that I should use all PHP functions do that that stuff.

My delema is, the file /proc/cpuinfo shows up as 0 bytes on all the Linux servers I have access too, so using the following line won't work.


self::$cpuinfo = fread($loadcpuinfoFile, filesize(self::$cpuinfo_file));Now, since I am more concerned about learning how to write more efficient PHP classes, what would be the best way to overcome this?

Would setting this to any day old'n number work?

[krakjoe]

I dunno why they show as zero filesize, however, all of these files are not going to exceed php's memory buffers, you should use file_get_contents because it's less instructions to interpret and so faster ( always remember php is interpreted so the less lines the better in general ), more efficient code ...

Thanks, this is what I got as of now, might finish it up later, working on this server that keeps getting to the loads of the 1,000.
