RE: Re[2]: [PHP-WIN] MySql pconnect

Ok, I understand what your arguments boils down to now (but my definition is actually exactly the same as yours.... ;). Let me refine my self: I did compare MySQL towards other RDBMS-engines and the general functionality you may suspect to find within them, not towards a specific application. In this respect, MySQL are more worse than I first believed. But on the other hand, if we should compare "goodness" towards application, Yes, then I do agree with you, that for some applications MySQL might not only be a good solution, but even the best choice! But for my considerations, after I read that article. MySQL is definitely out of question for potential DBMS - I been suspecting this before, but for other reasons. The article I read just made the final touch to convince me in my intuitive conclusions about MySQL's performance. >I have no current need for stored processes or transactions, so I >wouldn't really care if it had it or not. Hmm... I could fill a book as an argument against such attitude. :) But... no time today. :) Regards, Anders - who has to concentrate more on the rewriting of a database loader now....
