This may be the case for you but for people who are seeing
poor performance scaling this would be a very welcome upgrade.
P.S. I know this is kinda trollish, but I don't understand the
interest in MySQL as a load, particularly when there are more
interesting loads such as PostgreSQL out there. Would you guys mind
graphing the relative performance of PostgreSQL on 6.2-RELEASE and
your patched version please?
What makes PostgreSQL more interesting? Because you use it perhaps?
I would hesitate a guess that Mysql is a very common workload
under FreeBSD likely more so than PostgreSQL and as such that
would be a very good reason for it to have particular interest
and hence focus as a good starting point.
