Which kernel profile ? GENERIC ? Modified ?

Ralf Engelschall wrote a paper how to fine tune FreeBSD
kernel for high performance load sharing webservers ...

Certainly there are things that could be tuned when 
using databases.

Did you already ask on the mysql mailinglist, what they recommend
to fine tune to increase performance in general for mysql ?
Perhaps they already have some experience with FreeBSD ?

Already searched the archives (www.google.com) ?
I looked for: mysql performance tuning
And got some links:
http://www.tryc.on.ca/archives/mysql/December1999/0009.html

What disks are you using SCSI or IDE ? What driver settings
in the kernel ... Some kernel options might give a difference.

Maybe the Linux machines have some performance knobs turned
on, in certain areas FreeBSD is more restrictive in turning
on such knobs per default, with the sake to support more
(crappy) hardware.
