how that can come, that table locking is faster than versioning? from
how i understand versioning it can't be slower. and saying that "possible
access problems" with table can be avoided be specially designing
application. God! i must design specially for mysql, being locking whole
tables.
this page shows that they are low-end even in the mind. they
didn't implemet constraints/subselects/views/triggers/full joins, but
they've got packed bases and compressed client/server protocol! wow.
must be cool.
personally, when i tried 7.0.2, with triggers/constraints/views and
other cool stuff (transactions!) i said to myself "yep, that's the
db you need". and now, whatever they say, when i hear somebody doing
billing system (!) on mysql, i just shrug my shoulders. in russian
it called "everybody goes insane his own way".
btw, what's related to in-memory quick db, what prevents you from
creating memory filesystem and put postgres dbs there? in *bsd it's not
a problem, on linux i believe too...
