How fast /reliable/SQL conformant it is ? I use it and find it quite usable. It supports an extensive subset of SQL but not all SQL features are implemented. Therefore it has almost all nice features that Postgres 4.2 has. For speed i can only say: It is much faster than Postgres 4.2 :) I did not run any benchmarks. I'm stuck on the compilation phase ;( - there are some problems with yy_flush** fucntions ,as well as few headers are obviously missing. I didn't try to dig it assuming that someone here pro- bably has invented the wheel ... A well kown problem with all ports that use flex. Try using a newer flex (>2.5.2). Rashid William
