I want to know whether this patch is correct, and if so, could I ask you to merge this to Maria?
Sorry that we have not had time to get back to you. There is a lot going on at the moment, but the whole point of MariaDB is to be a place where the community can work together on the codebase. So it is important that we be responsive. I will try to review the patch this week. I am not familiar with this area of the code, so it would help me if you could provide some additional information. - You mention CREATE TABLE, but I assume the patch actually speeds up creation of a new tablespace, right? Is it used for the creation of all tablespaces, or only for tablespaces used for tables when --innodb-file-per-table=1? - I think InnoDB has the option to auto-extend tablespaces, as well as create new ones. Does this patch handle both creating new and autoextension? Or only the former? - Do you consider the patch complete? Or do you have ideas for how it could be extended, perhaps in a future version? - Is there any other interaction with other parts of the code in InnoDB (or the server) that you are aware of? - Did you get any useful feedback (and if so, what) when you tried posting this to the internals@mysql.com mailing list? Or just the extremely arrogant "we do not like the patch and we will not say why" that was replied on the public list? Anyway, thanks a lot for your efforts so far, and I will try to get back to you at the end of the week. - Kristian.
