I'm considering using the raw tablespace from InnoDB for a project I'm working on. I noticed a couple of years ago that there were reports of tablespace corruption on Linux and these raw tablespaces. Have these problems been fixed?
Yes. I'm using a raw disk for some months now, without any problems.
However, I've heard that it doesn't give the performance improvement I'd expected. Try it yourself.
I don't have specific numbers in front of me right now, but I tested the raw performance of InnoDB on a G5 running OSX 10.3 and it was actually worse than using regular files. I'll see if I can dig up the specific numbers.
