<h2>Linux kernel 2.6.38 has been released, bringing performance
improvements for databases</h2>
The newest update to the Linux operating-system kernel features a
number of enhancements that should offer a performance boost,
particularly for running databases and other programs that require
maximum resources from the server.
<p>The 2.6.38 kernel features some "really deep changes," noted
Linux creator and manager Linus Torvalds in <a
href="https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/3/14/508" target="_blank">an
email announcing the release</a>. This kernel has been released
only 10 weeks after the previous version, 2.6.37.<br>
