    Who is a professional daytrader in this forum?

    Windows Databases

    I use mySQL with Java and it is fast. It is faster than MS SQL server .... I tested it. But if you have to write a complicated query, it is much harder in mySQL. You can throw anything at the MS SQL Server, and it will figure it out run things optimally. The mySQL query parser is much more...
