    Does running a mysql query eats a lot of bandwidth?

    How if I compare with the bandwidth used when loading images?

    Thank you.

    It depends on the query. If for example you fetch images from mysql database it can take bandwidth.

    It doesn't use any bandwidth at all unless your database is located on a different server from your web site.

    If they are on the same server, then zero bandwidth used for a MySQL query.

    If you display the results in the output, then bandwidth is used.

    That has nothing to do with whether or not a MySQL query was executed.
