Thanks for your help Dathan, I will make the required changes.  I just have
one other problem.

I'm not sure what queries don't use an index.  I've attmepted to turn on the
slow-queries-log, but nothing ever shows up in the file. Here's what I have
in the my.cnf

[mysqld]
skip-locking
set-variable = key_buffer=256M
set-variable = max_allowed_packet=1M
set-variable = table_cache=256
set-variable = sort_buffer=1M
set-variable = record_buffer=1M
set-variable = myisam_sort_buffer_size=64M
set-variable = thread_cache=8
set-variable = max_connections=500
set-variable = ft_min_word_len=1
long_query_time=1
log-long-format
log-slow-queries = /var/log/slow.log

Do you have any idea why my slow query log isn't working?

Can the mysql user write to this file?

--log-long-format should show you queries that don't use an index.

Do I have
something wrong in my syntax?  I'm using MySQL 4.0.  Thanks for your help, I
really appreciate it.

Look at


Created_tmp_disk_tables     14768
Created_tmp_tables             269520
Created_tmp_files                 3


Increase tmp_table_size          = 64M:

it's used to stop going to disk and some internal mysql operations.


Handler_read_rnd_next 58229817

Your tables are not index properly, your doing a lot of table scans.

Your biggest perf. Gain will come from changing your schema and or
optimizing your queries.

Hello,

I was wondering if a more knowledgeable person could help me out with my
configuration and let me know how I could further optimize MySQL. Here's
the hardware on my dedicated server:

Processor #1 Name: Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.40GHz
Processor #1 speed: 2400.152 MHz
Processor #1 cache size: 1024 KB
