I couldn't see a way to aggregate it in the ganglia linked.. could you share how many mysql (maria) queries per second you guys are averaging?

I should clarify: I used to work there but I sometimes still say "we".

I'm not a ganglia wizard - maybe this comes close? Although it's just all selects. I think.

You might try asking on wikitech-l, the same mailing list that the original post comes from.
