Patches in mysql-5.1-ndb-stew1 20071016
----------------------------------------------------


PATCH: stew_tree_configure_in_version.patch

Add -stew suffix to version in configure script

==============================
PATCH: suma_extra_debug_on_crash.patch

On crash in SUMA, display extra DEBUG information to help diagnosis

There's some extra things that may be useful on crash - feedback from
a customer issues where some more info would be nice.

==============================
PATCH: remove_ndb_use_exact_count.patch

Remove ndb_use_exact_count - use cache of approximate count instead

Util thread maintains cache in table share, updated every
ndb_cache_check_time. On info call, if count is zero - force a check.

If ndb_cache_check_time is zero, leave 2sec between checks.

For an exact row count, NDB requires round-trips to the data nodes.

For approximate, we can cache.

Old behaviour of disabling ndb_use_exact_count would return 100 as
the row count. This led to horrible execution plans in some cases,
but big respens time boosts in others.

This patch gives us our cake *and* we can eat it too!

I've observed 300% improvement in response time in some tests.

==============================

Likely issues for LockPages and lots of memory used... but
good for smaller places i hope.
