They don't have any optimized binaries for sparcv8, sparcv8-vis or for sparcv9. On our newpkgs list, we inform every Monday about package updates or new packages. --> lists.blastwave.org > Unfortunately, the site doesn't explicitly say which packages are compiled > with Sun Studio, and which are from GCC. Only a few packages are compiled with gcc.

It's little bit better (with gcc 3.x), but MySQL will still run about 20% faster, if it's compiled with Sun Studio.
