Looking for a new way to speed up your MySQL server? The tcmalloc library from Google Perftools could be the answer (about 15-20% performance improvement). Refer to this (updated) How-to for more information.
I just packaged Google Perftools 1.4 for Debian 5.0 (a.k.a. “Lenny”). According to the Changelog, they’re bringing a lot of bugfixes and improvements, and then they enhance the stability of the daemons they’re plugged in, especially on 64bits systems.
Upgrading from previous version is highly recommended.

Thanks for your great work, very nice! Please also think about Etch. That would be very nice!
