The programming madness continues

Another quiet morning spent coding has yielded yet another revision to my RSS syndicator code deal.

The script now has the ability to return a specified number of feeds that were most recently updated. This is sort of cool because it helps to cull out feeds that do not get updated very often, and brings the newest stuff to the top.

While working on this script, I decided that I should dig a bit more into how I can make my php perform better and stumbled across:

ob_start() and ob_get_contents() seem like they may be able to help speed this little script up, so I am going to look into that. I do worry that as the number of feeds grows, this little script could end up taking a bit more server then I would like.
