I'm no DBA, but I've listen to DBA's I trust hammer on MySQL being used in 
a web production environment. Something about threading and performance 
issues.  If I remember correctly its much the same argument against 
ACCESS.  The DB can only process one thread at a time, the rest are queued. 
Obviously placing a single threaded database behind a multi-threaded 
environment is going to produce less than perfect results.  If you are 
checking into the viability of a linux solution in a production 
environment, it would be my strong recommendation that you evaluate 
Postgress or DB2 in linux rather than MySQL.

Just my $.02, perhaps someone else has a more authoritative response.
