Well, I'm comparing to an in-memory database that will lose the data once the system crashes! If the person is willing to use hsqldb at the moment there obviously they have no concerns about or the need for data integrity and durability. > "Once the database is booted with derby.system.durability=test, there > are no guarantees that the database is consistent." That sentence is misleading, it only means after a re-boot. If you create a database with derby.system.durability=test then while the JVM is kept running there are no problems. Dan.
