Re: MySQL on Win32 vs Linux ?
Hi, As I remember : MySQL's programmers use windows tools for developing. You can use Win32-MySQL without any problem. But I suggest APACHE for PHP! best regards özgür YÖNSIS ltd, Istanbul - Original Message - From: "Paul Fine" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, November 17, 2003 3:45 PM Subject: MySQL on Win32 vs Linux ?

Unfortunately I may have to use IIS for a project and am just wandering if I can expect the same sort of stability and performance using MySQL (and PHP) on a Windows Server.

Re: MySQL on Win32 vs Linux ?
Running Win2K and the latest MySQL 4 release. I have a little more than half a billion rows in three databases and about 50 tables. For about six hours a day, MySQL is hammered like there's no tomorrow adding/deleting/updating millions of rows. No problems at all. I've been using MySQL for almost five years now. It's hard to imagine sometimes. It's never, ever given me a problem on any platform. It's only been recently that my use of it has gone beyond a few hundred thousand rows. So far, it handles a hundred million just as well as it did a hundred thousand. I'm very pleased with the scalability and stability of the software on the Windows environment. -- R.

RE: MySQL on Win32 vs Linux ?
I have been developing with Windows2000, Apache, MySQL and PHP (WAMP ?) platform for about two years now and have had no problems. However, I have been deploying onto a Linux server so my observations may not be valid for your purposes.

Paul, Someone did a benchmark of MySQL running on Linux vs Window and Windows was about 20%-25% slower. That's probably not enough of a difference to make a diehard Windows user learn Linux. :) The only other concern is Win2k/NT servers should be rebooted at least once a month otherwise they tend to get unreliable whereas Linux can stay up for a year or more. You can of course run Apache on Win2k machines and requires less patching (less rebooting). Want to see what OS a website is running?

In two years of light but increasing use of MySQL/Win2K I have not seen a failure on MySQL that was not related to a power failure without benefit of UPS.

Re: MySQL on Win32 vs Linux ?
Paul: In my experience, MySQL on Win32 platforms is very stable. Of the 80+ customer systems we have running our applications in conjunction with MySQL, the vast majority are on Win32. The DB server needs to be properly tuned for the application and environment, but that is the case with RDBMS you might sleect. IMHO, any instability is not related to MySQL, but rather to the O/S platform itself.
