This all reminds me  of a few releases ago MySQL performance being
terrible. I guess this is still the same? We've had arguments internally
weather certain machines are FreeBSD like some existing or Linux like
other existing as Linux always out-performed by miles. We never tested
these using on OpenBSD however, so I don't know if that had the same
problem...
