2009/7/28-8/6 [Computer/SW/Database] UID:53213 Activity:nil | 7/27 I have an actual technical question here. My MySQL DBA tells me
that I can't expect a MySQL port to be able to run effectively
on more than a two CPU box, he says that the extra CPUs will
sit there unused. Is this true? I have a bunch of new quad core
