I tried some benchmark testing on a Dell 1850 5.4-Release-P2 with generic kernel. From what I have seen from your postings I was able to get a higher supersmack result, 23626.76 .
I compiled 4.0 MySQL with some optimizations
portupgrade -RN -m 'BUILD_STATIC=yes BUILD_OPTIMIZED=yes' /usr/ports/databases/mysql40-server/

Downloaded and installed the supersmack source from here http://vegan.net/tony/supersmack/super-smack-1.3.tar.gz
with just ./configure --with-mysql

Copied the default large my.cnf profile
cp /usr/local/share/mysql/my-large.cnf /var/db/mysql/my.cnf

# super-smack /usr/share/smacks/select-key.smack 50 1000
Query Barrel Report for client smacker1
connect: max=44ms  min=11ms avg= 20ms from 50 clients
Query_type      num_queries     max_time        min_time        q_per_s
select_index    100000  3       0       23626.76

If I delete the /var/db/mysql/my.cnf and restart mysql so I get default configuration, I get 13398.76
# super-smack /usr/share/smacks/select-key.smack 50 1000
Query Barrel Report for client smacker1
connect: max=29ms  min=7ms avg= 17ms from 50 clients
Query_type      num_queries     max_time        min_time        q_per_s
select_index    100000  7       0       13398.76

For me this is as fast as I need my database to be but I can understand there is a difference here between FreeBSD and Linux that would make you prefer it as the db OS choice.

Regards,
Mike

Your posting a lot of configuration here except the most easily important one for performance in MySQL, thats your my.cnf configuration file
You will more then double your performance if you just start off by copying
/usr/local/share/mysql/my-large.cnf
to
/var/db/mysql
MySQL out of the box setup to use a tiny amount of ram and it wouldn't surprise me if a lot of Linux distributions have a much more high performance my.cnf file since most distributions are aimed at people who don't know what they are doing.


Sorry, good point, here's the my.cnf we're using. Please note however
that although the configuration may not be optimal, we have been using
the same config for benchmarking on Linux also. No matter how broken
this my.cnf is we still shouldn't find MySQL running half the speed on
an "identical" setups only switching from Linux to FreeBSD.
