**mysql**

Backend for popular RDBMS MySQL. This backend uses MySQL's Berkeley DB

(transaction safe) table format, so with small amount of data it may be a
218+
bit slower than *dbm backends (due to mysql layer's overhead). However with
219+
lots of data mysql may perform better (due to query optimisation). No actual

serious benchmarks were made though. For more info on installation of this

backend see doc/mysql.txt.

This backend is implemented over the metakit_ storage system, using Mk4Py as
