However, I'm not completely sure this is the case in large libraries yet, it might be but I think I've seen some people with large libraries saying that MySQL is faster.
I suspect MySQL support is going to be dropped, it's just a matter of time. The first step is probably to include it but completely rely on the community do all the testing (besides automatic unit tests) and the second step is probably to drop it when it no longer works good enough. However, I don't think anyone knows yet if/when that will happen.

When installing with the Debian installer on Linux it's specified as a dependency and will be downloaded together with SBS, this is the case already today in earlier 7.x releases when SQLite isn't supported. -- erland Erland Isaksson 'My homepage' (http://erland.isaksson.info) (Install my plugins through Extension Downloader) (Developer of 'TrackStat, SQLPlayList, DynamicPlayList, Custom Browse, Custom Scan, Custom Skip, Multi Library, Title Switcher and Database Query plugins' (http://wiki.erland.isaksson.info/index.php/Category:SlimServer)) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ erland's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3124 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=77215 _______________________________________________ beta mailing list beta@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta
