Hi,

Last time i tried embedded mysql (4.1) i just noticed it was buggy and not properly documented. i could get it to work but is still needed silly things like a my.cnf on the c:\ drive (windows), possibly conflicting with a running mysql server. To me it looks embedded mysql needs tonloads of work, has issues when distributing your app etc, where sqlite works just fine, and has potentional te be faster as well. Did not do any benchmarks, but it appears to me that performance of embedded mysql is comparable to running a mysql server on localhost. Also be aware that in case your application crashes for whatever reason, embedded mysql crashes as well and thereby your database files are very likely to become corrupted...

regards,

rene

contrast/compare?
