I'm building up a new MySQL server. The box specs are:
2U, Dual 3Ghz Xeon processors, 6 Gigs ram, 500 gigs of Raid 5
storage.
I'll have the hardware in my hands tomorrow. I've used RedHat
on all my previous linux servers. I'm planning on going with
Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES.
But, I've heard that the new threading code in the latest linux
kernal (2.6) really improves MySQL performance. The RedHat
site says that Enterprise is based on the 2.4 Kernal, with
"numerous additions from the Linux 2.5/2.6 kernal".
And I just spotted another place where it mentions "Native Posix
Thread Library: A new high-performance multi-threading capability
provides improved performance for multi-threaded applications."
So, am I assuming correctly that RedHat Enterprise does offer the
new threading code? Anyone know any problems using the new RedHat
Enterprise for MySQL?
