1 - Asynchronous command processing support
2 - Threaded access support (a nice side effect of feature #1)
The driver was being developed as part of the <a
href="http://www.espace.com.eg/neverblock">NeverBlock</a> library but it
was spun off to live on its own so all Ruby (and Rails) developers can
try it out
Hopefully we will be able to integrate this with the original driver to
prevent fragmentation. For now you can install it from <a
href="http://github/espace/mysqlplus">githb</a>
The /test folder includes usage examples for threaded and evented
access.
This should be of interest to Rails/MySQL users as it will enable this
combo to benefit from the new thread safety feature in Rails 2.2
