let's put some things straight. I haven't seen stability problems with mysql on OpenBSD in a long time. not even on sparc64. Unless you're really pushing the limits, performance is not much of a problem either. with really extreme load, our threading library shows why we wanna go for rthreads. for the vast majority of uses out there, you will not see a difference. -- BS Web Services, http://www.bsws.de/ OpenBSD-based Webhosting, Mail Services, Managed Servers, ...
