(OT) Date: Mon, 28 Nov 2005 18:59:15 +0100 Message-Id: <20051128175915.15933@smtprelay1.telia.com> X-Mailer: CTM PowerMail version 5.2.1 build 4397 sv MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Virus-Checked: Checked by ClamAV on apache.org X-Spam-Rating: minotaur.apache.org 1.6.2 0/1000/N Given the sad, sad performance findings at: "No More Apple Mysteries, Part Two" Date: September 1st, 2005 are there any javabased DB alternatives, that may perform better than MySQL (or PostgreSQL for that matter)? I prefer free, open sourced DBs or otherwise with a license that could fit a small business/non profit organisation. I don't enough of JVMs to know if Javabased DBs are usually better performancewise than MySQL/PostgreSQL, but my thought was that if everything is kept within the JVM, the weak performance spots in OS X would be minimized as threads would be handled within JVM rather than within OS X. Threads being being the prime suspect in the weak MySQL performance in OS X according Anandtech. Do you have any thought and/or suggestions on this issue? Experiences you could share? My server runs Mac OS X Server 10.2.6 with Java 1.4.1/1.3.1. I can't use Java 1.5 just yet. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscribe@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-help@tomcat.apache.org
