row-based or query-based MySQL log-bins?

moin moin,

Which is better, more reliable, etc?

I think most of our queries are really only updating one row at a time, so
the size of the log-bin probably doesn't change. We do probably have some
transactional stuff. The transactional stuff would be for financials, so
likely the most important stuff :).

Some of the slaves are in different datacenters than the masters if that
matters.

Thus far slaves are purely for backup and failover. We should soon also
have slaves for reporting. If I get my way, the reporting slaves will get
updates from the backup/failover slaves.

ciao,
