you are acting blindly if would recommend that YOU stay at 5.1 and do not touch things you do not understand as long we are speaking about production servers why will you change to innodb? you know about the differences (fulltext search..)? you know that for most web-load MyISAM is faster? you

Correct me if I am wrong, but my impression is that usage of DEFINER=user in stored procedures has no impact on runtime and is actually optional. (not to be confused with the clause SQL SECURITY INVOKER which is crucial.) Note: I use 5.1.32-enterprise-gpl-advanced-log. David. -- MySQL General

Apparently Winblows-only. It sure would be nice if people would note platform requirements in their announcement, rather than forcing people to dig through their websites for such info. I guess I should know better; if it doesn't list platform requirements, the developer hasn't thought beyond
