Mysql has tons of options that influence it's
memory usage (see the various example .cnf files
in the support-files/ subdir of the mysql source
distribution).

I'm shure you can make it use more of your memory :)

Keep in mind there's additional options if you're
using innodb, and double check if your server is
really using your customized my.cnf...
