I understand that the RAID option can help break the 2GB/4GB barrier, esp.
on Linux machines.

But how do you surpass the Max_data_length restriction of 4294967295 bytes
on a "RAIDED" table?  do you increase max_rows on such a table?  if so,
would this affect the performance of a large table e.g. above 50GB?

Without changing max_rows it seems that MySQL will still restrict the table
size to 4GB, even with raid_chunks and raid_chunksize set to e.g. 50 and
256?

Anyone out there tweaked these settings before and what was the outcome?
Thanks.

Cheers,
Geoffrey
