webscalesql vs mysql. Which to use? I am confused on what the difference is between webscalesql and mysql. From my understanding webscalesql is a branch of mysql. Does this mean that webscalesql is a subset of mysql, so it is better to download MySQL rather than webscalesql as the changes made in webscalesql will be merged? If so, why would anyone download webscalesql?
webscale (https://github.com/webscalesql/webscalesql-5.6) is a fork of mysql implementing, apparently, facebook's mysql patches. These same patches are slowly making into many of the mysql forks out there.
