OS is Redhat 7.3. DB is MySQL because it has the fastest SELECT speed of any DB (so they say). Happy to use any DB - speed is the issue not rigid data integrity/rollbacks or finance per se. Berkeley won't work due to single reader/writer or multi reader config. Server has 2GB ram dual processors and all the RAID tweaks to minimize seek time. MySQL/OS compile tweaks to get around its ~800 query limit in stock form. Typical query is: 

SELECT integer from client_X WHERE key IN ( ?,?,?,? ) ORDER BY key DES
+C

Primary key is key. IN grouping 1 min, 10 max, average 3 typical 2-4.

Peak query rate can potentially exceed 10,000 per second. Base code all copes fine. DB not so happy at high loads.
