1 That's a matter of choosing what you install; but that's not specific to Gentoo.

3 MySQL on Gentoo is not going to be any different than MySQL on RHEL or SLES.
4 However, stability - due to differences in versions, patches, etc. - might be different; but should be close to the same.

23 Why? Is it not be more a matter of scalability than stability? So that,
24 for example, an enterprise level database application might need to
25 handle tables with tens of millions of rows and thousands of
26 transactions per second. Or a file or email server be able to handle
27 tens of thousands of user accounts etc.
