php 5.4 and php 5.5 are standart official
php5.5 don't support windows xp and windows 2003
in php5.5 function mysql_ are obsolete (use only mysqli_ or PDO_MySQL.

from [ forum.joomla.org/viewtopic.php?p=1710866](http://forum.joomla.org/viewtopic.php?p=1710866)
. If you are using database heavy CMS systems, forum software or ecommerce packages, you will benefit from MariaDB. MariaDB won't fix any MySQL errors you are having but it will increase database performance
