Hi,
.
To improve Drupal performance, our client has suggested to change the field
types from varchars to integers in some tables.
A few tables with varchar fields are as follows:
node : type
permissions : perm
node_access : realm
blocks_roles : module
(It means we are numbering node types from node/comment/page/story to
1/2/3/4..... like that)
I guess i need to change the drupal core code as well - if i change the core
tables field types.
I would like to know whether this is feasible or not.
And what would be the impact, if i change the data types of the core tables.
Thanks & Regards,
T.Melantias
