Looking at clients' deployed applications, the web boxes tend to average over a year's uptime so I can't say it seems like it'd matter that much.

Provided you've got runtime code loading and a useful QA process, I don't really see why you'd need to care - MySQL's lack of transactional DDL causes far more downtime than lack of serialisation would were we using a continuation-based system.

Unless there is a five or six nines SLA.

"Provided you've got runtime code loading and a useful QA process,"

Hardware might crash as well.

"MySQL's lack of"

That one is really good.
