If your tables are MyISAM (not InnoDB), then 128MB is much too small
for your key_buffer.  You should look at the sample my.cnf files that
come in the mysql documentation.  Those will give you a better
starting point.

And to answer your original question, in general, RAM is more useful
than anything else for a database.  Whatever is using your CPU might
be work that could be pushed off to your web layer, but the data
access can't be.
