I am investigating ways to implement Comet on my server, and I'm getting stuck on how to store the data on the server that needs to be "pushed" to users. I have the option of using Java or PHP. I could store things in a database, but that seems to be a bit of overkill, and then there's the mess of having to clean up the old data when it is no longer needed. Plus I am worried about performance issues when we have to constantly repoll the database to see if new information is available. Is there a more elegant solution to this problem?
