Hi Raphael,
a better solution for webclusters is a separate network (e.g. vpn),
esp. because SSL still consumes performance (even with modern cpu
instructions) when used at large scale web systems with lots of mysql
query traffic.

Cheers

i understand that compression and SSL for MySQL are yet missing.
However, they might not be used widely on most debian installations -
but they are still very important features, i agree.
SSL _is_ widely used in certain setups I work on. The alternative is
to setup an ssh tunnel but it implies more work when upgrading, and
can not always be used depending on the use case (as it requires
access to both the client and the server).
I also haven't expected to see this feature in the upcoming debian
release, but in the experimental/unstable trees.
Changes that end in the testing and later stable distributions go
through unstable. Since there is no real benefit so far, there's no
reason to spend time preparing, uploading and maintaining packages
using mysqlnd.
Complementing the list of obvious differences already mentioned by
Ondrej, there have been reports about certain behaviour changes (like
defaulting to something different than what libmysqlclient defaults
to, etc). They are being fixed, yes, but that doesn't mean it is
ready.
Cheers,
