US MySQL is taking forever to add an id column. Europe should be fine in the meantime.
MySQL? What are you using that piece of shit for?

I guess it's simpler than Postgres.
SRSLY, responsible financial institutions use postgres. It's a question of how serious
your local bank-pool is about transactions!

Then again, replication between nodes is a lot easier with mysql, at my last look. Could be better now in pgsql...
