I have a similar smp config (dell poweredge 2650, dual Xeon 2.8, RAID5) I have best performance with linux 2.4.21-smp (not tried 2.6), but very poor (5x less) with mysqld using libpthreads on CURRENT. mysqld process is always in state 'kserel' or sometimes '*Giant' http://grumly.eu.org/~ced/dmesg.txt http://grumly.eu.org/~ced/CED-SMP.txt (no invariants, no witness) mysqld with linuxthreads seems to work better ... and even better with libc_r (but using only 1 cpu) Everything with HTT disabled in bios. Enabling HTT gives even worst performance :/ -- Cédric Tabary
