Anyone used XtraDB from Percona (instead of InnoDB)?
shankar108: I recently deployed XtraDB 1.0.4-8 with MySQL 5.1.39 -- I've seen speedups of upto 50% on some queries -- especially on 1M+ row updates.Setup is easy. Here's what I did
1. download mysql 5.1.39 source tarball
2. download percona xtradb 1.0.4-8
3. extract mysql 5.1.39 tarball
4. delete contents of 'mysql-5.1.39/storage/innobase'
5. extract contents of xtradb tarball into 'mysql-5.1.39/storage/innobase'
6. compile mysql source with standard configure options
