Re: MySQL on Linux, Athlon MP stability?

So please, if you have a success- or disaster-story I'd like to know! :) I'm also very interested in what mainboard you are using for the Athlons, and what Linux-kernel version you're running...

RE: MySQL on Linux, Athlon MP stability?
Well, I don't have anything yet, but I've got a server in the mail coming to me that is a dual Athlon MP 1900+. I'll be getting it either today, or tomorrow with any luck, and I'll let you know how things go. Gonna be running SuSE 7.3, PHP, MySQL, Apache, BIND9 and various other packages on it. Oh, and SETI@Home, to burn in the processors. ;) Matthew Walker Ecommerce Project Manager Mountain Top Herbs -Original Message- From: Tobias Lind - Telia Internet [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, February 13, 2002 9:32 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: MySQL on Linux, Athlon MP stability?

Note that the Via kt266a (_not_ SMP chipset) is quite good these days. If I was building a dual-processor machine, there's no doubt I'd go for an Athlon system at the moment. For a quad-processor machine, I'd look much more closely at the P3 Xeon chip (the P4 Xeon has no 4-processor motherboards afaik). ObMySQL: Make sure you are CPU-limited before considering SMP machines. If you are hard drive limited, you aren't likely to see any advantage going for more CPUs.
