We're having some serious problems with concurrent queries.

This is a dual-processor amd64 machine with 16GB RAM, running NetBSD
and MySQL 4.0.25. key_buffer_size is 3GB.

When I have a long running query going, otherwise short queries take
a very very long time to execute. For example, I have

insert ignore into trimble.old_crumb select * from trimble.crumba_rolled

which is appending a lot of 'live' data to an 'archive' table.

Meanwhile, I'm trying to execute

INSERT IGNORE INTO link_area
        (link_ID, dir_Travel, area_ID)
        VALUES
        (20202178, 'F', 21014195);

This latter query is taking between 6 and 45 *seconds* to run. Yow!

mysql> explain link_area;
+------------+------------+------+-----+---------+-------+
| Field      | Type       | Null | Key | Default | Extra |
+------------+------------+------+-----+---------+-------+
| link_ID    | bigint(20) |      | PRI | 0       |       |
| dir_Travel | char(1)    |      | PRI |         |       |
| area_ID    | int(11)    |      | MUL | 0       |       |
+------------+------------+------+-----+---------+-------+

help?
