I'm just getting frustrated here having to go from list to list and repeat everything that has already been posted each time as each group wants to push the problem on another group... starting to remind me of the Healthcare system, but none of us can fix that problem :P > > Why don't we compare apples to apples and use stock my.cnf settings > > for both? > >That's fine. You were trying to run dual tests (stock and huge >my.cnf settings) on each platform but mostly chose to look at >huge cnf remote results. I only stressed the my-huge.cnf results because they (on i386, using Linuxthreads, remote) was the only thing that came anywhere near the Linux results. I'll try to put a page up that consolidates the results so far.
