Expanded question.

Jul 21, 2011 at 16:54 comment added Matthew Flynn @Konrad Rudolph - If you write your application on MySQL and then decide to migrate to DB2, do you really think the stored procedures are going to be compatible? Likewise if you want to migrate to SQLLite? Also, suppose you upgrade your OS--if your stored procedures are compiled in C (which they are in DB2), they'll probably all need recompiling. These are reasonable arguments--not absolute, but reasonable.

Jul 21, 2011 at 14:10 comment added Konrad Rudolph I don’t buy the arguments against stored procedures. They are simply not true.

Emphasis of the question changed, in the light of the initial responses received. Base question unchanged.
