That message mentions that in his normal operation he is handling 1631
queries per second without even phasing the machine.  He also mentions that
he got the machine digesting over 6000 inserts per second in a benchmark he
ran...this with the perl+DBI scripts running those inserts on the same
machine.

Now, Wesley has a Quad Xeon 500, 512kB cache with 3GB of memory.  All with
RAID, and a lot of cache.

As I said, the load MySQL can handle is almost 100% dependant on your
hardware.  I'm sure the MySQL software has some kind of roof somewhere, but
where it's at I have no idea.
