Dear all, The message I enclose is dated almost a year back. I would greately appreciate if you let me know if transaction support in MySQL has stabilised in sub-sequent releases ? secondly, if one does use transactions by converting to BDB of InnoDB what is the impact on indexing/ speed of access, etc. v/s ISAM ?
