If you're processing large amounts of data, fscanf will probably prove valuable and more efficient than, say, using file followed by a split and sprintf command. In contrast, if you're simply echoing a large amount of text with little modification, file, file_get_contents, or readfile might make more sense. This would likely be the case if you're using PHP for caching or even to create a makeshift proxy server.
