Subject: MySQL support for AMD64
I just received a box with the following specs:
Dual AMD64 8G ram Two 3ware 2.4 terabyte RAID 5 arrays.
My company has been using Redhat for most of its production machines.
1. Does anyone have any success/horror stories running MySQL 4.0.x on RHES 3/ AMD64?
2. Does anyone have alternate recommendations for running MySQL databases in the terabyte range on AMD64?
both MyISAM and InnoDB can handle terabyte size databases.
About AMD64 + Linux: there seem to be quite a few problems still. I do not know whether it is buggy drivers, bugs in the AMD64 port of the Linux kernel, hardware manufacturing flaws, or even design flaws in AMD64. Some people are happily running Linux on AMD64, some people had to abandon it because of too many problems. Linux developers are working to fix the bugs.
Thanks Lynn Bender
