Jeremy,

Thanks for mytop.  Its a great tool and its been a
great help in diagnosing our problems.

I saw where a few of the others claimed the latest
binaries resolved the issues.  Its not clear whether
their problem was the same others were experiencing
(those whose probs were corrected w/ .53a were
complaining of 'out of sync' errors which seems
different than the type of CPU throttling myself and
others have observed).

Anything over 50 queries a second for even a short
time brought the cpu to its knees.  Mysqld processes
were eating up all the cpu and the server becomes
practically non-responsive.

With the older binaries, we avgd 20 queries second
with bursts up to 200-300 with no problem.  The load
average stayed around .50 or so and went to around 3
under heaviest load conditions.

With the latest binary (installed under thus far lower
usage) we are seing 13 queries a second but the load
average stays at 1.3 which is not a good sign.  It
looks like we will see a meltdown under even moderate
load conditions.

The weekends our the heaviest times for us and I will
keep the list posted on what happens as I know there
were many others that struggled with this over the
past year and found no resolution other than
downgrading to ancient versions of the binaries.

Thanks,
