Yes, there are delays. But not for the reason that we are having any problems. We have been borrowed out to other teams recently. A short status report.

Andrey could not resist and has continued researching on parallel and background query operation. Georg was not too happy about this. Not that Georg does not support the idea, no, but Andrey had some other urgent assignments. Well, Andrey sometimes works in sort of waves: do little for some time, hack like crazy on other days. Again, Miha Nedok from http://www.izklop.com/, our alpha-beta-everything-tester number one, has given Andrey’s code studies a test drive and he did not regret it. However, I haven’t tested anything myself. I cannot …

Given the very low number of issues reported to us, we can assume that the core features of mysqlnd have matured. Therefore, we spend some time discussing parallel, background and asynchronous fetch ideas for mysqlnd. All have been on our brainstorming list from the beginning but it was just too early to even discuss them before these days. None of the ideas is new in any way as a recent discussion on the PHP Internals list on parallel database queries has shown. However, people seem to expect different things from it and are not sure how to implement it. We trapped into this ourself when Andrey wrote a background fetch proof-of-concept patch recently. Back one step: what is this about, what do you want, please comment!
