Could it possibly be Postgres?  I happen to know that Amazon RDS and
Google Cloud SQL support both MySQL and Postgres, and there are some
optimizations that some of us in the Cloud space have been pursuing
which are much easier because MySQL uses Direct I/O, but unfortunately
Postgres uses buffered I/O and doens't support DIO.  :-(
