using node-mariadbsql vs. mysqljs

Open edwardsmarkf opened this issue 9 years ago • 2 comments

hello - this is a question more than an actual issue.

is there any advantage using node-mariadbsql instead of mysqljs? i was thinking the two could possibly be used interchangeably.

i did ask this on stack-overflow and was asked my goal is, which would be to bind mariadb to node using standard CRUD functions.

shouldn't matter which one you choose if you're only making basic sql commands.

@edwardsmarkf - Although this library is no longer being maintained we've found the performance of this library to be better than mysqljs.

At the same time for any normal application, this should not make much of a difference. mysqljs also has much better community support. Also according to our observations, this module has had a memory leak since 0.2.6 release (#144 )
