Free Performance with MySQL Table Types
September 8th, 2009 admin
Last week, SitePoint launched its second Twitaway , giving away a free PDF of The Principles of Successful Freelancing to anyone kind enough to follow us on Twitter . Predictably, the site we built for readers to claim the PDF was swamped with traffic in the first few hours of the giveaway, and the MySQL server behind the scenes quickly ground to a halt. First, a little background: at the time of our first Twitaway in 2008, Twitter HQ had been kind enough to relax the limit it places on the maximum number of Twitter direct messages (DMs) that it would allow us to send in a single day.

Droid X Web Browser Comparison (iPh...In this video, we take a look at some of the inbuilt software of the Verizon Motorola Droid X, plus put the device head-to-head with the iPhone 4 and Google Nexus One running on Froyo. To start, the Droid X has some neat applications built in. You can use the 3G mobile hotspot app, but it's going to cost you $20 extra on your bill, plus there is a 2GB data cap. You can expect to get speeds similar to what a MiFi would bring, so about 1.5mbps down, and about 1mbps up. We talk briefly about the DLNA support which allows you to integrated multiple supported devices for multimedia playback. It's still unclear as to whether this standard will be popular, but a lot of new TVs and smartphones are coming with the standard built in. Then we do a web browser comparison against the iPhone 4 and Nexus One with Froyo. The results? The Droid X beat both devices most of the time in terms of page load times, which is great too see, and reflects the overall robust performance of the Droid X. Also, having the larger screen made web browsing more immersive.
4-browser HTML5 speed test deathmat...Here I go one step further, showing all four major browsers on the same screen. All four browsers are using hardware acceleration (I think; not sure about Opera), but you can clearly see Firefox and IE9 beating Opera and Chrome (by some margin!) Again, choppy video -- my screen capture tool doesn't seem to like 60 FPS at all. More at: www.downloadsquad.com

Recently, I discovered that while hosting your e-mail services on Google has its advantages, it also brings with it some minor inconveniences.

It seems the Oracle — Sun — MySQL debate is far from over. Michael “Monty” Widenius, the original creator of the open source database, has been a particularly vocal opponent of MySQL falling into Oracle’s clutches. However, time is running out and the initially hesitant European Commission are likely to green-light...
