Processing big DB tables with Laravel's chunk() method

Link – Dec 8th 2015

Povilas Korop shared a neat trick at Laraveldaily.com today.

Let’s imagine the situation: you have a big database table (like 10 000 rows or bigger) and you need to run an update to one column. But you cannot run just SQL query – there is some PHP logic behind it. So foreach loop could potentially take forever or bump into a default 30-second script limit. Luckily, Laravel has a neat solution for it.
