Care to share any secrets? You guys are running Suse w/ 2.4 kernel yes? Any specifics as far as kernel/glibc/gcc versions. Are you running mysql 4.1.*? Are you using NPTL? You using the binary from mysql, or building yourself? Are you running Innodb or Myisam. You mentioned reiserfs correct? Any problems w/ ext3?

Sorry to bombard you w/ questions, but we have had nothing but horrible performance using Opterons, and any specifics you can give would help to clear up this mess. I know that I am not the only person who is seeing this flakyiness.

Thanks,
Greg

To me it sounds more like a lot of people have had problems running Linux on x86-64 systems.




We don't have any problems running Opterons at all. With all the tests me and my team have done, we know the ins and outs of
getting Opterons up, running-stable, and blazing fast. Our entire
datacenter are (about 200 servers)


Dual Opterons with at least 4GB of memory running in 64-bit mode.

All the databases (about 30)
 - Are dual opterons with 8 GB of memory connected to a Hitachi 9980
SAN-through a McData Switch.

We do about 70K qps at peak for about 1 Billion Queries per day (only on
30 servers BOOYA). So, it's pretty stable.
