I saw this: [Profile-Guided Optimization (PGO) and non-PGO builds - Percona Server for MySQL](https://docs.percona.com/percona-server/8.4/pgo.html)

But cannot find any PGO builds/RPMs for AlmaLinux 8 with 8.4.10-10?

I was thinking of trying it out to see if it makes a difference. Is building from source the only option presently?

USE RHEL or  
To control whether PGO is used, compile Percona Server for MySQL yourself.

Starting from 8.4.10 packages are by default compiled with PGO enabled. So you should just install packages and you would get it

Thanks! So - I am already rocking PGO - that was easy.
