Re: MySQL 3.23.x preformance on MacOS 10.2
I'm not surprised OSX is slower than Linux. Apple still has a way to go toward fully optimizing the Unix underpinnings for their hardware. They are also a few versions behind in the BSD they are using. I'm presuming you have similar settings for each setup. As for the processes you see on Linux, in a nutshell Linux used threads and other Unix uses processes. That's one of the fundamental differences between Linux and other Unix flavors. Your actually seeing threads. Threads don't have the launch overhead that a process does so you should get better performance with threads.

Re: MySQL 3.23.x preformance on MacOS 10.2
Having built several Linux boxes on slower macs I can atest that linux on a slower mac (uing linuxppc or one of the other variants) is way faster than my terminal window is on my dual 1.25 gig processor G4. Just accessing commands are slower on the new mac. This surprises me as unix is the base for the operating system on Jaguar just as linuxppc was the base for the slower mac.

MySQL 3.23.x preformance on MacOS 10.2
