True, but how much of a difference? The REGEXP I wrote took almost 10 minutes to do what my LIKE did in 30 seconds. Unless your two hosts are separated by 300 feet of 802.11 at 2 mbits, I don't see this as an issue. > The point I don't see in this discussion is: where is the problem using > the is_header column even if that requires running a script or > program in the 2.0 series?

If we started to rely on is_header in 2.0.1, then if someone downgraded to 2.0.0 for a while, then upgraded again, they would have to re-run the upgrade script to assign the missing is_header columns. I'm concerned that this eats into our robustness along a stable series. Aaron --
