[QUOTE="Lehmden, post: 1222486, member: 109222"] Hi. MySQL was used earlier but was way too slow compared to SQLite. SQLite is five times as fast as MySQL. Those values are not "guessed" or calculated but measured on various real existing systems. And MSSQL is not faster than MySQL when it comes to the usage for MP2. You won't get a single benefit from using MSSQL but will have massive drawbacks if you use it. And as SQLite did not need any installation it's the only supported database recently. There are no plans to change that in future. As MP2 is Open Source you can write your own database access plugin for the server and replace the existing one. You can take the obsolete but existing MySQL plugin as a base to port it to MSSQL. Some devs have tried to do so in past but all gave up as it did not give any advantage at all... [/QUOTE]
