MyISAM tables can support up to 128 keys
rather than the standard 64. This can be done by configuring the
build using the option
N≤128 is the
maximum number of indexes to permit per table.
Added the mysqlslap program, which is designed to emulate client load for a MySQL server and report the timing of each stage. It works as if multiple clients are accessing the server.

It was not possible to reorganize a partition reusing a discarded partition name.
Now, for example, you can create a table such as this one:
CREATE TABLE t1 (a INT) PARTITION BY RANGE (a) ( PARTITION p0 VALUES LESS THAN (10), PARTITION p1 VALUES LESS THAN (20), PARTITION p2 VALUES LESS THAN MAXVALUE );
and then repartition it as shown here:
ALTER TABLE t1 REORGANIZE PARTITION p2 INTO ( PARTITION p2 VALUES LESS THAN (30) );
Previously, attempting to do so would produce the error All partitions must have unique names in the table . (Bug #15521)
BLACKHOLE storage engine did not handle
transactions properly: Rolled-back transactions were written to
the binary log. Now they ae not.
A left join on a column that having a
value could cause the server to crash.
Selecting from a view processed with the temptable algorithm caused a server crash if the query cache was enabled. (Bug #15119)
Creating a view that referenced a stored function that selected from a view caused a crash upon selection from the view. (Bug #15096)
Multiple-table update operations were counting updates and not updated rows. As a result, if a row had several updates it was counted several times for the “rows matched” value but updated only once. (Bug #15028)
ANALYZE TABLE did not properly
update table statistics for a
FULLTEXT index containing stopwords,
so a subsequent

Creating a view within a stored procedure could result in an out of memory error or a server crash. (Bug #14885)
SELECT queries that began with an
opening parenthesis were not being placed in the query cache.
The maximum value of
MAX_ROWS was handled
