Percona's MySQL & InnoDB performance and scalability blog
Looking into InnoDB docs I found list of names of future InnoDB file formats: Antelope, Barracuda, Cheetah, Dragon, Elk, Fox, Gazelle, Hornet, Impala, Jaguar, Kangaroo, Leopard, Moose, Nautilus, Ocelot, Porpoise, Quail, Rabbit, Shark, Tiger, Urchin, Viper, Whale, X, Y and Zebra.
Aren’t there animals starting on X and Y?

mmm… apparently whoever wrote that isn’t aware that there’s already a database product out there called Ocelot (http://www.ocelot.ca)

Damn, you beat me to “Yak”
Indeed, Peter, the early adopter documentation and code (which is very slightly newer than what you tested) did incorporate Xenops and Yak!

This is kind of obvious but shouldn’t Gazelle have been Gnu?

Gnot Gnecessarily!
Besides, Gazelles are fast and beautiful. Gnus … well …
Ken,
We should make Posted By more visible – this was done by Vadim
According to the source, there are animals with X and Y:
/* List of animal names representing file format. */
const char* file_format_name_map[] = {
…
“Xenops”,
“Yak”,
…
};

So, i also think it was You post.
Hmm, tt’s very strange, becouse atom show correct author name: Vadim of this post.
I’ve asked Jay to change planetmysql.org to show MySQL Performance Blog instead of Peter Zaitsev.
You also can report the bug if it does not passes author information from original feed – there are a lot of blogs by multiple authors.
Xeme. It’s a type of gull.
