Hi!

Anyway, we talked a bit about the replication protocol and possibly moving to something more flexible like protocol buffers[1] or Thirft[2]. That'd be handy, since I've occasionally had a desire in the past to whip up a Perl client that can speak MySQL replication.

I want the data coming out of replication to be completely open. The server should be using the same library that any other client can make use of.

Right now I am experimenting with buffers, and they seem to do the trick. If I can get a working prototype this week of how we can use them in the server then I will have hit my target.

But then today we had a network glitch at work[3] that caused a corrupted log entry to get written to the slave's relay log. THAT SHOULD NEVER HAPPEN. There should be a simple checksum (CRC, MD5, whatever) on the log event that the slave can check before committing it to disk and expecting the SQL thread to be able to parse it. Fixing that by hand wastes my time, and I really don't like things that waste my time.

Agreed. We will also add an ordering ID so that we can fetch/reply records independently.

Cheers,
