Id' try searching on mysql.com . Also just from experience mysql is an extremely reliable, workhorse of a system. In fact I found a link on mysql's site that had an article from some big database conference recently that said that on the tests they ran, only Oracle and Mysql passed/had similar performance. That means that, free and awesome mysql had oracle like power, as in $50,000 to buy a house instead Oracle. ( I get the $50,000 figure from a company that we do work for that has a fifty thousand dollar Oracle system, granted that included a 2u rack server appx $3,000 if I bought it straight from a store. So maybe I should say $47,000 :) ) You also find great support for mysql and perl's DBI module has served me well withh mysql and perl.
