mysql - linuxthreads
A week or so ago I wrote to the this list asking about Freebsd and Mysql, wondering if you still needed to compile Mysql with linuxthreads to get better performance under Freebsd 6. I didn't get much of a response so I looked around for the answer. I thought I'd write back to the mailing list to tell anyone interested what I found. In the Freebsd 6.0 is seems that to get the best MySQL performance you need to do a few things. #compile your kernel with the ULE scheduler #use the TSC timecounter #use the libthr threading library with mysql #and it seems mysql 4.x has better performance than 5.x under Freebsd 6. Here are some websites that I found useful with this: http://wikitest.freebsd.org/moin.cgi/MySQL http://www.unixguide.net/freebsd/faq/05.26.shtml http://unix.derkeiler.com/Mailing-Lists/FreeBSD/performance/2005-12/ msg00078.html http://unix.derkeiler.com/Mailing-Lists/FreeBSD/performance/2005-12/ msg00084.html http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-performance/2005-December/ 001677.html http://taosecurity.blogspot.com/2005/11/problems-with-freebsd-6.html http://blog.gslin.org/archives/2005/12/12/252/ Hopefully this helps someone else out.

Re: mysql - linuxthreads
I didn't personally measure it, though someday I hope to be able to, but I did read in several places that using the ULE scheduler was the better choice to use with FreeBSD. Here are the links that are noteworthy: http://wikitest.freebsd.org/moin.cgi/MySQL http://blog.gslin.org/archives/2005/12/12/252/ Romeo On Jan 27, 2006, at 3:22 PM, Kris Kennaway wrote: On Fri, Jan 27, 2006 at 03:15:05PM -0500, Romeo Theriault wrote: A week or so ago I wrote to the this list asking about Freebsd and Mysql, wondering if you still needed to compile Mysql with linuxthreads to get better performance under Freebsd 6.

Re: A strategic question
I still consider myself a Unix newbie after using Unix based systems for about 5 years now. I've never just solely used Unix based systems , but they hold the most interest for me. The fact that I don't know how to do everything right away and I have to work at these types of problems keeps me coming back for more. Not to say that I don't ever get frustrated by it sometimes. There have been times especially in the beginning of learning Unixes where I've said Screw it!! and went back to using Windows. But I always find myself coming back and each time learning more and going back less. I still don't use Freebsd or Linux etc as my primary Desktop machine, because I'm not a Unix expert and still prefer a comfortable gui. For the time being I'm very happy using Mac OS X as my desktop machine, because I can use the Unix underpinnings but still have an exceptional gui that I don't need to fuss with to get working the way I like. One thing that I read about the programming language perl was that where ever possible it was made easier for the expert instead of the newbie, the philosophy being that your only a newbie once and you'll appreciate the elegant simplicity (though initially difficult) of language later. I find this true for the Unixes also. Generally the system is built with experienced users in mind. But once your used to it you'll be thankful. So take your time. Everything won't work the way you want it to over night. There are also some other BSD's that are supposedly easier to install and run. I believe PCBDS is one of them. http://www.pcbsd.org/ Romeo On Jan 27, 2006, at 9:16 PM, Jozef Baum wrote: This posting doesn't contain a technical question about FreeBSD, rather a strategic one. Some time ago, I wanted to migrate to a Unix environment, because I wanted to have a secure, stable, convenient and efficient environment for developing and running programs, no longer having to buy a new PC with a new OS and applications software every 3 years to support Bill Gates' only goal (becoming and remaining the richest man of the USA). At the end of the 20th century, it took us only a few years to have to upgrade from Win 95 to Win 95SE, to Win 98, to Win 98SE, and to Win ME, only to remain with a poor OS. Now, when reinstalling my version of Windows XP, it takes me more time to download and install the SP2 than to install Windows XP. I wonder how people with a low-bandwidth Internet connection do to download the SP2 for Windows XP. I downloaded Solaris 10 and a lot of documentation about it, then installed Solaris 10. As opposed to Linux and free BSD implementations of UNIX, Solaris looks like a professionally developed operating system. It seems to be1 a very advanced operating system. However, I soon realized that, when one wants a yacht, it is not a good idea to acquire the Queen Mary II, just as it costs too much time to acquire a hotel to have a cup of coffee. Then I downloaded what I thought being one of the best Linux distributions, Suse Linux. I tried to install it, but the system got locked up by something so stupid as my nVidia modem. Together with the heterogeneous quality of Linux components, and not at all liking Linus Torvald's arrogance, I decided to abandon Linux. I came to FreeBSD, with the idea that it had a more homogeneous quality development model, downloaded the FreeBSD 6.0 boot CD and CD 1 and 2, and installed it on my PC, following the handbook. I knew UNIX is a toolkit intended to IT knowledge people, so it will never perform a breakthrough to the average desktop user. But my disappointment with FreeBSD was great. In fact, to install FreeBSD, one needs already a lot of knowledge about the system. To acquire that knowledge, one needs experience on an installed system. But to have an installed system, one needs already a lot of knowledge about the system. That's the problem. The handbook doesn't tell you that, at the last chance message, you have to take out the boot CD and to insert CD 1. But if you don't do so, nothing gets installed. I configured a German ISO keyboard, but many keys don't work correctly. One has to look with Google to find additional information about configuring a German keyboard. I have a cable Internet connection and my network card was recognized, but getting an IP-address with the DHCP service of my provider was impossible. Again, I had to look up with Google how to allow the firewall to get an IP-addres with my provider's DHCP. The locate command did not work, as the locate database seemed to be corrupted. I had to figure out how to rebuild this database. The root user had a csh, while ordinary users had a sh shell. I had to figure out how to provide the same shell to the root user and the other users, as all those virtual users are all one and the same person, me. I tried to setup an X Window environment
mysql with linuxthreads
I've read alot about FreeBsd 5.x series being so much faster with mysql when it's built with linuxthreads. Is this still true for Freebsd 6.x. If so how do I build mysql with linuxthreads? How do I know what the options are when I build any package for that matter?

how to keep a freebsd 6.0 release up to date
Hi, I'm interested in how to keep a freebsd 6.0 release up to date without having to follow the stable branch. All of the security advisories have instructions on how to patch systems up to 5.4, even though 6.0 is listed as affected also. I've read that 'freebsd- update' will do this, is this correct? But if I don't want to use 'freebsd-update' is there a security branch I can follow with CVSup.

Once you get into the setup menu go to options and change the release from 4.9 to 4.1.1-RELEASE and when I have 4.1.1. on a CD. I tried with the 4.9 floppies but I couldn't. I received different errors (panic: going nowhere without my init!). Maybe the disks were bad. When I remembered and used the 4.1.1 images it went ok.
