Hi Stephen,

I tend to view the integrated MySQL server in Roxen as mostly and
merely
a hash-table on steroids, and therefore never use it in my apps.
The way
Roxen uses it, and the way my applications use databases differ enough
to warrant separate tuning (in order not to step on each other's
caches).
The installation is simplified when we can rely on the integrated
database by default. Of course, anyone can move it off externally for
further tuning.
But, I now realise that quite a sizeable number of people actually do
(ab)use the integrated MySQL server as an application database; which
obviously makes that this setting should be exposed to the
webadministrator.
Yeah, and actually using the features of a relational database to
handle more advanced application logic can simplify certain things a
lot (e.g. caching). I'm OK with adding a setting for "query-cache-
size" in the Administration Interface.
All the best,
Fredrik
