Look what somebody suggested! ----------------------------------------------- If the worst happens and Oracle tries to squash InnoDB, there may already be such an alternative out there. I wonder what it would take to add (and optimize) Postgres storage engine support to MySQL? I don't know exactly how current versions of MySQL and Postgres maesure up performance-wise, but PgSQL seems to have made steady progress on performance improvements. Maybe this is a crazy idea, I don't know how technically or legally feasible it is, but I really like the idea of the two open-source communities uniting to battle Oracle. http://jeremy.zawodny.com/blog/archives/005490.html#comment-21233 __________________________________ Start your day with Yahoo! - Make it your home page! http://www.yahoo.com/r/hs ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
