The Makefile of mysql server says about linuxthreads:

        @${ECHO} "      WITH_LINUXTHREADS=yes   Use the linuxthreads pthread
library."
        @${ECHO} "                              This is _NOT_ recommended
for production"
        @${ECHO} "                              servers. Expect problems
when enabled."

Iago.

FreeBSD's threads library implements threads as a single process, so it
will never use more than one CPU.  If you built using the ports tree,
try rebuilding with WITH_LINUXTHREADS=yes, which will use the Linux
threads model (one process per thread).
