May I suggest a minor change?
- "Keep the directory tidy"
The "data/base/*/" directories looks awful, almost as bad as the
c:\windows dir on my dos partition... ;-) All types of files are
just thrown in, without any structure. It would be nice if the
files were put into separate subdirs:
data/base/mydb/{systables,tables,indexes,sequences,tmp} etc.
Sometimes my temporary sort files grow too big, and I would love to
be able to symlink tmp/ to another partition.
/* m */
