I actually recently Did MySQL benchmarks using DBT2 MySQL port.

The test box was  4Way Xeon w HT,  4Gb RAM,  8 SATA Disks in RAID10.

I used RH AS 3.0 for tests (2.4.21-9.ELxxx)

For Disk Bound workloads (200 Warehouse) I got 1250TPM for "hugemem" vs
1450TPM for "smp" kernel, which is some 14% slowdown.

For CPU bound load (10 Warehouses) I got 7000TPM instead of 4500TPM,
which is over 35% slowdown.
