Hi. As far as I know, MySQL doesn't suport row-locking, only table locking is available.
But I figured table locking for sessions table of CGI::Session::MySQL would be quite inefficient, for there might be millions of rows and hundreds of them could be active at any time. So what do you guys think of locking a specific row with a semaphore file and what conventions should the locker and/or the table should follow? --------------------------------------------------------------------- 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?
