MySQL runs very well on FreeBSD. Multiple MySQL server and client = versions are available in databases/ directory of the Ports Collection.

SMP with FreeBSD is extremely stable with both 5.x and 6.x. Both = schedulers are good choices in the latest 5.x and 6.x, but I would recommend using = the 4BSD scheduler over the ULE scheduler in a production environment. There is an implementation of LinuxThreads available for FreeBSD. You = can get it by installing the devel/linuxthreads port. The MySQL ports have options to let you build them with linuxthreads support.
