For comparison:
Pentium II/233, 96MB RAM, RedHat 6.2
MySQL 3.23.41 (replicating to an identical system for resiliancy).
Uptime:                 7 days 21 hours 17 min 3 sec

imho MySQL definitely *can* cut the mustard. My client decided to do a stability test 
on the above system, so he set it processing, then just pulled
the plug out.
The system needed some serious fsck-ing when he reapplied the power, but MySQL 
restarted automatically - and processing continued more-or-less exactly
from where it left off! Recently, they had a power outage during the weekend. It 
wasn't until Monday afternoon that anyone noticed that the MySQL host
 had been
down, and then only because Apache had failed to restart.

Now *that's* impressive!! I just love software that just works, and works, and works 
.... (takes a licking and keeps on ticking, etc).

Thanks MySQL AB!   :-)
