This is the fun part :). Machine which is the fastest with old mysql
and Debian has  IDE HDD and 128 MB RAM, RH7 machine (dual PIII and new
mysql) has SCSI RAID and 512 MB RAM, same with FreeBSD server.

Little more than 12 MB

Already did this. Machines with new mysql have ALL bigger values
(key-buffer, sort-buffer etc) than this old mysql. And we tested them with
same values too... nothing, still alot slower :(

Yes, they are same with same versions of MySQL.
