I've never has any speed problems with MySQL, even using it on mega-sites like ezsweeps.com back in the late 90's. -- Greg Donald http://destiney.com/ --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
