MariaDB is a drop-in replacement. At least on Debian. I just switched 
packages. Years ago already.

Many distros do not package MySQL anymore. Debian still does.

Of course Pablo is right: It won't make a performance difference unless 
you change other configuration parameters. Setting higher InnoDB buffer 
pool size can help. At least from my subjective experience it does here. 
However I have a kinda crazy setup with a huge ton of mails and folders.

Thanks,
