title: Which would be faster in retriving data from a mysql database?
body: <p>Which would be faster in retrieving data from a mysql database?  Data split across two columns, or the same size data from a single column?</p>
  
  <h2>Edit:</h2>
  
  <p>Just to give an idea, I have a table for a question and five answers it will receive.  These answers are quite big about 1500 words each.  When it comes to data retrieval speed, should I use a column for each answer, or should I just make one column with the 5 answers separated by a delimiter then use a script to separate them?</p>
