I would like to know weather this plans goes for 2003 or later. Some specific date is less important, a granularity of a bout a half year, like early 2003, mid 2003 or late 2003 is fine for me. But I believe someone said there was some plans for early 2003 or so to hand out 4.1. > I made the (apparently false) assumption that you wanted a more pragmatic > answer.

What I understand from reading text about MySQL, the available buffers for MySQL can be adjusted to reflect the capacity and/or use of system resources of the hosting system? And yes, I need to perform such operation as loading some tenth of million rows of data into the system on a regular basis. > So anything you disagree with is an opinion, and not a fact? No, but in this case it happens to hold true. By the way: I am curious about why are you so aggressive towards me. What harm have I caused you as a person? //Anders --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
