Re: Article on MySQL vs. Postgres
Tim,
Aside: Is your MySQL database running on an ext2 volume or on a ReiserFS volume? I read somewhere that half of SourceForge is now running in Reiser. Is this true?

time for me to suggest changes though :)If you can figure out an algorithm that shows these nested messages more
efficiently on postgres, then that would be a pretty compelling reason
to move SourceForge to Postgres instead of MySQL, which is totally
reaching its limits on our site. Right now, neither database appears
like it will work, so Oracle is starting to loom on the horizon.Tim

That's ext2. I don't know if "half" of SF.net is running on Reiser, but
some of the biggest, most critical stuff has been for 6-8 months.
