I've just figured out after installing MariaDB 5.5.23 on two server (one directly from the x64 binary, and the other using the debian packing) that innodb_use_native_aio is OFF on the two servers.

Am I missing something ?
No, you are right. It seems both the tar.gz and deb packages provided by us are built without libaio. For the deb packages, we regard this a bug and I created this bug report: https://bugs.launchpad.net/maria/+bug/988204 For the tar.gz packages, we are rather reluctant to add additional dependencies like libaio. Unless deb, a tar.gz package cannot announce such dependencies, so users might end with a dysfunctional installation without a warning. We will review this decision internally. Thank you for reporting this problem! Axel Schwenke Senior Performance Engineer, MariaDB Services AB
