Hi,

> When can we safely begin to distribute it on a larger scale (not beta)?

Not yet. I just found one important bug in the page store. It will not
appear in the normal case, but I it's very important that this is
fixed. I'm currently fixing it (and of course adding test cases).
Originally the problem was reported by a user, and I could reproduce
it now using a very small page size (64 bytes instead of the default 2
KB).

> Is it more or less (or the same) subject to corruption?

In theory, it should be less subject to corruption, because all old
data pages are backed up before writing. The old storage engine only
back up data, not indexes, by default (except when adding LOG=2). In
the old storage engine re-built in the indexes, this will not be
required; the new storage engine is simpler in a way.

In practice, because the code is relatively new, the probability of
bugs is higher.

Sure. The recover tool should never be required of course.

Thomas
