Is 6.2 going to be faster than 6.1? As I said earlier, some of the most important changes that went into 6.0 were fixing performance problems in 5.x. Since then it's been a process of polishing and improving, instead of architectural changes. So 6.2 is expected to be "better" than 6.1 but probably not measurably faster for general workloads. > Did the guys port the libthr changes into 6.2 or not? Dunno what you mean here.
