It certainly did seem like a marginal improvement, but
an improvment nontheless, back when we deployed 7.4 (I
thing the feature was introduced in 7.3). Now that
we've switched to FC3, it was a minor inconvenience to
have to rebuild the RPM just for this feature, and I
was wondering if there's been enough testing to make
it a default. Your answer clearly is "no". Allright.
I wonder if the bugs you're finding are serious enough
to warrant dumping the data and restoring it to a
version without integer-datetimes?
Thanks,
Murthy
