Works ok for me. Hasn't crashed or anything like that. I use mysql 5 on OpenBSD that some web apps talk too. I just did an import of a previous dump, and it took somewhere in the neighboorhood of 7 hours give or take. (for a few tens of million INSERTS that's not bad).
This is run on a slighlty older sun 220r (450Mhz), and 10K rpm disks. --Bryan On 6/20/06, Anders J <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hello List. > A customer have a mailserver solution wich must be moved to a new > hardware, today its is running on a old suse 9.2 but i really want to > use OpenBSD if possible. > It uses postfix, cyrus-imap and mysql as the backend for users domain > info, contacts etc. (only 58 named users and 3 domains and several > aliases) > My self have experienced mixed issues with MysSQL on OpenBSD and also > read and heard about performance and stability problems with MySQL on > OpenBSD. > So i'm a bit nervous implementing this on OpenBSD (Should i use FreeBSD > instead)?. > Has anyone a positive experience with 3.9+ MySQl > mysql-server-5.0.21.tgz > <ftp://ftp.sunet.se/pub/OpenBSD/3.9/packages/i386/mysql-server-5.0.21.tgz > >(or > later)? > > And by the way it is not an option to use postgresql since they also > have several other apps which use the database in question .So migrate > to an other db platform is NOT an option. > > Regards > Anders
