Loaded MySQL 4.0.18 w/ KSE running nicely

[Thomas Hurst]

Just thought I'd make a little note to let people know that we're
successfully running MySQL 4.0.18 on 5.2.1-RELEASE-p3 dated Mar 18 using
libkse, after having raised thread limits to 500 per proc/150 per group:

  Uptime: 233816
  Threads: 45
  Questions: 33388272
  Slow queries: 597
  Opens: 2725
  Flush tables: 1
  Open tables: 429
  Queries per second avg: 142.797

This is running on 2*1266MHz Pentium III's with 4GB of memory, although
MySQL is "only" using about 1GB of it.  Main issue we've noticed is top
shows the main process as using 0.00% CPU; ps does too, but setting it
to display threads works as expected.

We did try -CURRENT dated around the same time, but we were plagued with
MySQL lockups and such even using linuxthreads, which we've ran for over
a year fine on 4-STABLE, MySQL bugs notwithstanding.

We're open to suggestions for improving performance and happy to test
things (within reason.. this is a production server ;)

fwiw imho omfg wp gg np gtg k pls tnx lol!  Ahem.
