Hi! The optimizer issue is a known bug in 4.0.16 (I think). It should be resolved soon if my memory of the traffic on the list as of late is accurate.
Regarding the issue with threads on Redhat 9.0 - did MySQL 4.0.13-Max come with Redhat 9.0 (or was it supplied by Redhat)? If it was, then chances are it used the NPTL library which provides "proper" POSIX thread semantics, meaning that all threads in a process share the same PID and thus don't show up individually in top or other process monitoring/auditing programs. If you downloaded 4.0.16 from anywhere else, it will have been linked against the LinuxThreads library, which uses the clone() system call to create new threads, resulting in each thread having a unique PID and being visible in top. Hope this helps!
