I'm at work right now, helping to upgrade the MySQL master in Finance from 3.23.xx to 4.0.9. All the slaves have been running 4.0.x for a while (currently 4.0.8) so it's about time we got the master updated.

This should be interesting...

Update: So far, so good. We're actually running 4.0.8 now on the master and all slaves.

If and when you have time, I'd like to hear why you upgraded, and if you ran into any particular difficulties. We might look at upgrading sometime soon at my work.

Thanks!

How's that query caching working out for you?

The query cache has been working well for us--for many months now.

Out of curiosity, what kernel are you running on?
We used to run on 2.4.18 (redhat-dist) kernel, but it caused many weird problems (duplicate entry errors in the logs, replication desynch, table corruption)... it all ceased when we upgraded to 2.4.20 from kernel.org

We're using 2.4.18 from kernel.org.

Do you have any idea if 3.x to 5.1 would work as a direct upgrade?
