Re: Which one is the best?

well you can either do it as a plugin or as a theme extension. Personally I would make a plugin and create a page in the admin section for adding/editing/removing entries – then create some template tags to display the data.

As for performance, well that’s all down to your skills with PHP/MySQL – but I doubt you would need to worry about it unless your site has hundreds of visitors at a time all using the database at the same time…
