how can i specify an integer to be one byte byte or even 4 bits long? int1, int(1), tinyint are nowhere to be seen. smallest i can find is smallint that is 2 bytes.
in a table i will have a few columns with values between 0 and 15, so optimally i am looking for some kind of unsigned 4-bits, or (un)signed integer (1-byte).
i can live with smallint for a while but estimate a few millions of rows in the table to be a reality soon, in such cases every byte matters.
is there some
