Title: Drizzle database

Drizzle appears to be a drop-in replacement DB that it is Mysql compatible (being forked from Mysql 6), but is a much, much slimmed down version. Despite this, it appears to have retained all the functionality required by the popular php/mysql apps I'd deploy.

I tried a few times on building this, but get continuously rebuked by boost libraries, for which I can see cause lots of issues in extension building due to incompatible versioning.  Either that, or the extensive requirement of boost libraries I'm somehow not satisfying.

(source: http://docs.drizzle.org/installing/from_source.html#dependencies (http://docs.drizzle.org/installing/from_source.html#dependencies))

If it provides a mem footprint smaller than the 24MB+ one I get from mysqld, I'd consider this a huge win.
