Re: Opteron HOWTO?!

[Greg Whalin]

I am all in favor of this idea.  Currently, this info is scattered all 
over the web, and finding it can be time consuming (even w/ Google).  I 
see lots of people jumping the same hurdles, so a central location for 
this info seems it would greatly benefit the community.

So... it sounds like a lot of people here (Dathan and Greg) have had 
problems deploying MySQL on Opteron in a production environment.
I was wondering if we could start an Opteron HOWTO somewhere (mysql 
wiki?) which could illustrate the minefields they've had to walk to 
hopefully solidify MySQL on this platform and to prevent others from 
having the same bad experiences.

We're considering an Opteron migration as well and as the 2G memory 
barrier fast approaches I'm expecting more MySQL users to migrate as well.
Maybe this should be a X86_64 bit FAQ though since Intel is coming out 
with more EM64T stuff....
