I was also curious about more generic mysql settings.  Does anyone have some /etc/my.conf recommendations?  On my distro (slackware 12.2) there exists:

/etc/my-huge.cnf
/etc/my-large.cnf
/etc/my-medium.cnf
/etc/my-small.cnf

My RT has about 13000 tickets, and isn't very busy.  However, since my test upgrade the new RT3 is quite a bit slower in response time compared to my RT2.  Ticket content loads slowly.  I'm also configured with FastCGI.  Should I expect this to be slower than mod_perl ?
