MySQL 4

[bulldozer]

Will MySQL 4 improve speed for batch adding images in Coppermine as opposed to MySQL 3.23?

New version says this:

Version 4.0 of the server includes a new query cache, which can significantly increase the performance of commonly-issued queries, without requiring any special programming. Performance can be increased by over 200% in typical usage.

I don't think so, since the bottle-neck is not mySQL, but resizing (creation of thumbs and intermediates) using GD or ImageMagick during batch-add.
