There is two issues I can think of with using libdrizzle with MariaDB: - The client api is not binary compatible with MySQL. This is a problem as we would like to be binary compatible with MySQL's client library so that anyone can just replace MySQL with MariaDB packages without having to recompile the clients. - libdrizzle doesn't support, as far as I know, some MySQL features like prepared statements. Do you have a full list of what things are not supported in libdrizzle compared to libmysql? I would also like to do a full benchmarks to compare libdrizzle with libmysql to know how the libraries compare speedwise; I have already asigned this task to hakan. Regards, Monty
