I have several G5 Xserves that run mysql5, I got my new macpro this
week,
Installed mysql5 for x86 MacOSX, It seems that the mysql5 running
on x86
take way less cpu than the G5, cutting cpu usage is always a good
thing,
Why ? If your processor is left idle, then its processing power could
be used to do some stuff.
I agree it is bad when one process eats ALL CPU and does not give any
CPU time to other processes. But as long as the server is responsive
for other tasks, and if CPU power is needed for a task, then it is
not an issue.
Also, you must compare oranges to oranges, or in this case, apples to
apples :-) Low CPU usage is not a good indicator of how efficient a
process is. Otherwise, the apps sleeping on your hard drive would be
the most efficient on your computer :-)
