>Is it me or do these dual athlons seem rather responsive! Yay!! I win (so far... heh)! I ran it on one of our servers (not idle... running apache w/ CGIs and db calls ~ 140,000 scripts/day ) We are using as many tricks as we can. 0. mysql 4.0 binary from mysql.com 1. we set the nice to -15 in safe_mysqld (good trick.. be must be carefull not to over do it) 2. my.cnf skip-locking set-variable = lower_case_table_names=1 set-variable = sort_buffer=50M set-variable = record_buffer=2M set-variable = key_buffer=64M set-variable = query_cache_size=5M set-variable = thread_stack=2K set-variable = thread_cache=8 set-variable = thread_concurrency=4 3. Kernel is custom compiled with minimal drivers. Only what hardware is on the system is compiled. No modules. 4. I think the Athlons just preform better too.
