title: using libdrizzle as an async mysql connector
body: <p>I'm interested in using <code>libdrizzle</code> as a generic asynchronous-capable connector for mysql db for a c++ application (actually as a backend for <a href="http://code.google.com/p/hiberlite/" rel="nofollow">hiberlite</a>). Since early this year libdrizzle is no longer a separate project and its merged in the same <a href="https://launchpad.net/drizzle" rel="nofollow">drizzle project</a>, so installing as a separate dependency (unrelated to the rest of drizzle) might have become slightly more complex.</p>
  
  <p>I'm wondering if people has used this library for interfacing to MySql or MariaDB, probably make some mickey mouse benchmarks to have a rough idea how it stands relative to the synchronous default driver.</p>
  
  <p>Also, comments on difficulties to install, setup, pitfalls (the documentation is essentially nonexistent) would be greatly appreciated.</p>
