Am I wrong? Well there seem to be some significant periods of waittime that are purely within mysql. I do not understand these very well but I do not think that all of the dropoff after 8 threads is our fault. There is, however, some considerable contention reported. My select patch was created to address this. Attilio's lockmgr work should fix the next biggest bottleneck. After that it looks like filedescriptor locking needs some more attention since there are so many threads with a shared fd set.
