Agreed 100%. postgres is very cool.

I don't care what benchmarks show about how fast mysql is, it doesn't do anything, that's why it's fast.

Mr. Goulet, I applaud you.

There are a few books on MySql, God only knows why. Their mailing =3D list(similar to this one) is quiter than a morgue. Personal opinion: = =3D
Dump MySql in favor of PostGreSql. Cheaper, easier to install (my =3D opinion) and much closer to Oracle.
