Hm, I am not sure I understand fully what you mean, but anyway. MySQL does
the job, it does it good and fast. If you need/want more, then you probably
have enough reasons to go into the little trouble involved to make it run.

I did a test install on Firebird recently, that took me about 15 minutes
including reading up on Firebird.
