I've migrated the values from your config. And the plot is here: http://phoemix.harmless.hu/mysql/rw-kris.png I"ve also plotted a current production system, which crashes around 96 threads in the test, or so. That's a Linux-2.6.12 and MySQL 5.0.22, so it should be quite unoptimized compared to any recent version of anything. As it seems, you were right. These adjustments made a very slight performance boost, around 5%. But it's still lagging behind. Again, this is MyISAM, not innodb. The "tc4" and "tc16" strings mean the thread_concurrency is either set to 4 or 16. Your config had 16, but I've googled for it, and some resources suggested setting that to CPUs*2, and that's 4 in my case. I've updated the MySQL version on FreeBSD to 5.0.51, and will try to get this version on linux also, and do a comparision with that one, too.
