| The dolphin-pony - proof that cute + cute = double cute.

Django-MySQL extends Django's built-in MySQL and MariaDB support their specific
features not available on other databases.

What kind of features?
----------------------

Includes:

* ``QuerySet`` extensions:

* 'Smart' iteration - chunked pagination across a large queryset
* ``approx_count`` for quick estimates of ``count()``
* Query hints
* Quick ``pt-visual-explain`` of the underlying query

* Model fields:

* MariaDB Dynamic Columns for storing dictionaries
* Comma-separated fields for storing lists and sets
* 'Missing' fields: differently sized ``BinaryField``/``TextField`` classes,
``BooleanField``\s represented by BIT(1)

* ORM expressions for over 20 MySQL-specific functions
* A new cache backend that makes use of MySQL's upsert statement and does
compression
* Status variable inspection and utility methods
* Named locks for easy locking of e.g. external resources
* Table lock manager for hard to pull off data migrations
