My average rate over the last 67 days is about 52/second. In reality
we have some periods of much higher load (several hundred per second)
and some of much lower load. It is just about to hit the 300,000,000
query mark since it was last shut down (for the upgrade 67 days ago).

I'd like to hit a billion queries before the next downtime, but who
knows...

I'm currently running 3.23.29-gamma using the staticly linked version
from mysql.com.

I'd highly recommend upgrading to 3.23.xx. You should see better
performance with MyISAM tables. I'd also highly recommend using a
static binary from the mysql web site.

Certainly can. If a thread starts to suck cpu time, the whole system
will suffer and start to spiral down into places you'd rather not
look.
