other commercial damages or losses), even if such Contributor
has been advised of the possibility of such damages.

9. Accepting Warranty or Additional Liability. While redistributing
the Work or Derivative Works thereof, You may choose to offer,
and charge a fee for, acceptance of support, warranty, indemnity,
or other liability obligations and/or rights consistent with this
License. However, in accepting such obligations, You may act only

# PyMySQLsv

This project contains classes based on the PyMySQL database client which have
been accelerated using a C extension. Why would you want to do such a thing? Isn't
the whole point of PyMySQL to be a pure Python database client? Well, yes.
However, the only C-based alternatives either have restrictive licenses, have
dependencies that a system administrator must install, or both.
A MySQL client that is fast, easy to install for a non-admin user, and has a
permissive license is something that hasn't existed.

## What does the 'sv' stand for?

This tag borrowed from the Lamborghini Aventador SuperVeloce. SuperVeloce is
Italian for "super velocity".

## What about CyMySQL?

CyMySQL is a great idea, but doesn't give the performance we were looking for.
It increases the perforance of PyMySQL about 10-15%, which still leaves it at
the second slowest client. It is also based on a PyMySQL codebase from years ago,
so it does not contain any recent bug fixes or features of that project.

## How fast can it be?

If it's still mostly based on PyMySQL, how fast can it really be? Here's one
benchmark. We uploaded
[this data file](http://studiotutorials.s3.amazonaws.com/eCommerce/2019-Dec.csv)
into a SingleStoreDB table six times to get a total of around 21 million rows of
data including one datetime column, one float column, and 8 character columns.
We then used PyMySQL, MySQLdb, and PyMySQLsv to fetch the entire table with `fetchone`,
`fetchmany(20)`, and `fetchall` using both buffered and unbuffered cursors.
Here are the results.

| | PyMySQL | MySQLdb | PyMySQLsv |
|--------------------------|---------|---------|-----------|
| Buffered fetchone | 224.8s | 50.6s | 19.9s |
| Buffered fetchmany(20) | 217.6s | 50.3s | 15.5s |
| Buffered fetchall | 217.9s | 49.6s | 14.8s |
| Unbuffered fetchone | 230.5s | 48.3s | 25.3s |
| Unbuffered fetchmany(20) | 224.0s | 35.0s | 14.6s |
| Unbuffered fetchall | 232.4s | 37.7s | 29.2s |

As you can see the gains are quite significant for this test case. Even MySQLdb,
which is based on the MySQL libraries takes twice as long in all but one
of the categories.

## Install

This package installs just like any other Python package. Since it includes a C
extension it does require a C compiler if there isn't a pre-compiled version for your
architecture.
```
python3 setup.py install
```

## How to use it

This package contains a Python DB-API compliant interface. So connections are made
the same way as any other DB-API connection.

```
import pymysql as sv

with sv.connect(...) as conn:
with conn.cursor() as cur:
...
```
