It also still looks like there is the 8k row size limitation...

But that's compressed, right? I could check to see the size of my
existing tables by just looking at how big the .MYI file is? I thought
it was going to *partially* be in memory still not all of it - even
for indexes...

What about gigabit ethernet w/ jumbo frames? Still not suggested?
It seems like to get around some of the limitations it would be
suggested to look at table designs and possibly design FOR the
limitations - i.e. split up tables smaller so there's no 8k rows, not
build tables with extensive indexes, etc...
Thanks.
