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.
