infact .. the default debian config (some of these are just explicit
defaults but this is what debian provides):

[mysqld]
user            = mysql
pid-file        = /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid
socket          = /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock
port            = 3306
basedir         = /usr
datadir         = /var/lib/mysql
tmpdir          = /tmp
language        = /usr/share/mysql/english
skip-external-locking
old_passwords   = 1
key_buffer              = 16M
max_allowed_packet      = 16M
thread_stack            = 128K
query_cache_limit       = 1048576
query_cache_size        = 16777216
query_cache_type        = 1

max_binlog_size         = 104857600
skip-bdb

outperforms the huge.cnf example:

[mysqld]
user                    = mysql
pid-file                = /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid

old_passwords           = 1
key_buffer              = 384M
max_allowed_packet      = 16M
table_cache             = 512
sort_buffer_size        = 2M
read_buffer_size        = 2M
read_rnd_buffer_size    = 8M
myisam_sort_buffer_size = 64M
query_cache_size        = 32M
thread_concurrency      = 8
log-bin                 = /var/log/mysql/mysql-bin.log
server-id               = 1
skip-bdb
skip-external-locking

in almost every regard.  What gives? :)  This is a pretty beefy config:

dual 3ghz HT xeon .. 2gig 800mhz fsb mem .. U320 SCSI RAID5.  I've
attached a compare-results for a few machines.  the only important ones
are 1 and 2.  1 is debians my.cnf and 2 is the slightly modified
huge.cnf example.  What about that thread_concurrency setting in
huge.cnf.. it doesn't seem to show up in a 'show variables' when using
it.. is it deprecated?
