I've always been a believer in avoiding sql procedures, for the main
reason that I want to be as database-independent as possible. I know it
is less efficient, but being able to switch between MySQL, Postgre, and
the new freebies from IBM, Oracle, and Microsoft is a strong advantage
from the business perspective (of total cost to the customer, and
customer preference).
Of course, this is a discussion point. I'd love to hear from the
community on their experiences.

I'd also like to add that if you have a choice between doing
something in the application logic vs. MySQL's SQL
statements, then it is probably more efficient to use SQL
statements, constructs and related functions, to get the job
done, rather than in the application logic if possible.
