Ouch, that hurts.

To support mysql, they break performance for _every other_ database system?

Now, I understand how the mysql people manage to spread the legend of
mysql being fast. They convince software developers to thwart all others.

Seriously: How can we convince developers to either fix MySQL or abandon

Well, if you read the documentation, you will see that it will only wait
if there are at least commit_siblings other transactions active. So when
Bacula serializes access, there will be no delays, as there is only a
single transaction alive.
