Hi everyone, Can anyone help me out on the status of threads in -CURRENT? I am a bit confused as to when to use the following: 1) pthreads 2) libc_r (reentrant-safe/thread-safe libc?) 3) MIT threads and other 3rd part threads I need to make a fast, reliable database server (mySQL). I am currently using 2.2.6-STABLE w/ MIT threads, but MIT threads do not support unix sockets and are not native to the OS. But then again, I am a bit worried about the current stability of threading on -CURRENT. I have seen several complaints about missing functionality and possible bugs. Is there a noticable performance difference between mySQL on 2.2.6 and on -CURRENT? If so,... Does anyone have any experience / recommnedations for mySQL on -CURRENT? Would these recommendations be altered by using an SMP kernel? TIA, Kevin PS - Did the freebsd-databases mailing-list ever evolve?
