Well, it's difficult to know which one is faster until we actually implement it. As Mark point it out, MySQL has difficulty also. Both have pros. and cons. PostgreSQL support transaction and row level lock, while MySQL supports lock or page level rocks. (3.x) Besides, MySQL manual states that it does not perform well when insert and update is concurrently performed. A-I 1.4 (which is the case for session management) I'm interested in how well MySQL does the job, too. I may write session mysql, but it won't happen in near future. -- Yasuo Ohgaki <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> E-mail address has been changed. -- PHP Development Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
