Isn't this one of the problems Falcon is suffering from with respect to

Nope, that is not the reason that it has to use row-based replication.


Ok - I know it's a sideline topic but can you clarify what Falcon's issue is with repl?


The problem is that Falcon does not support SERIALIZABLE mode, and statement based replication requires serializability.

Row-based replication does not require that transactions are serialized, so it works with conventional MVCC engines.

[ to support serializability you have to do "gap locking", which is a complete pain - :) ]
