FreeBSD MySQL still WAY slower than Linux

In general, this is true.  But since we're in the glide path to a
release, and since we have measures in place to keep destablizing
commits out of the tree, CURRENT these days isn't a scary place to be
if you validate the specific version of current you are deploying.
There's risks there, but it isn't like it was at the worst part of the
5.x release cycle where you counted yourself lucky if CURRENT booted
on your hardware and was still running the next day...
