MySQL customer usage
********************

The section 'Some MySQL Users' contains a lot of different links to
MySQL users but doesn't provide that much information about how they
are using MySQL.  Note: Users. This manual section is to give you an
idea of how other MySQL users are using MySQL to solve their problems.

This manual section is very new and we plan to add more stories here
shortly.  If you are interested in contributing of how you use MySQL in
a unique environment or have success store about how you use MySQL, you
can write to `docs@mysql.com' with subject `Success:'.  Note that as we
are very busy it may take some time before you get some feedback for
your story.

   * *Peter Zaitsev of Spylog.ru* writes: I think you might be
     interested in my database size.  The whole database is currently
     on 15 servers and I think it's about 60.000 of tables containing
     about 5.000.000.000 of rows.  My mostly loaded server currently
     holds about 10.000 of tables with 1.000.000.000 of rows in it.
     Hugest tables have about 50.000.000 of rows, and this value will
     raise as soon as I'll move to 2.4 kernel with large files.
     Currently I have to delete much of logs for large sites to hold
     table sizes in 2Gb.

     contain up to 2,000 million rows in a validation regression
     database.
