Just curious question

Just wondering if anyone has an opinion or fact about this.

 

When pulling model data, keep it simple so Users controller getting straight info from Users database.

Users table has 15 fields.

 

You may only need 5 fields data and in another case you may need all 15 fields.

 

Is it best to specify the fields you need always?

I guess the size of the data in the fields will make a difference.

I am just thinking in regards to my app where i need a few fields, then i need all fields does it take more time to process a detailed request when you specify each individual field when you need info from 10 fields as opposed to *just and get them all.

 

What is best practise? Or in this case its more of a try both and see what works best for each app?

 

Thanks

 

Dave
