There is a FLOSS Weekly on that one too: http://twit.tv/floss35 I like this quote from their discription a lot and remember the sentiment from that web cast as well: "Drizzle has been designed for modern environments, which are 64bit, multi-core with gigabytes of memory." MyISAM has some pretty lame (assuming modern db server hardware) limits on table definitions that violating results in major performance issues. I like enough of what I'd heard that I shared it with our DBA.
