Well, I'll give you credit for going that little bit further than the post I was responding to. At least you gave a hint as to ONE issue that MySQL can have (which, by the way, I have never come across in the millions or so UPDATES that my projects have done over the years). A link to a discussion about the problem would have been handy, but, oh well. And I actually did try PostgreSQL once or twice many years ago. If I remember correctly, it was for a project that required full text search capability, and I had no end of trouble trying to configure and optimise PostgreSQL to do it back then, and simply reverted back to MySQL which worked out of the box. Or possibly I even went to SQLite with FTS3 back then to get it to work. I, like most developers would rather be creative on my code rather than fight my tools.
