Hi Using MySQL 4.1.19 on Linux, my server's CPU load is very high. I want to cut it down but I don't know which parameters I might modify to do it.
These are my server's data: -------- back log 50 basedir /usr/ bdb cache size 8,388,600 bdb home /var/lib/mysql/ bdb log buffer size 32,768 bdb logdir bdb max lock 10,000 bdb shared data OFF bdb tmpdir /tmp/ binlog cache size 32,768 bulk insert buffer size 8,388,608 character set client utf8 (Global value) latin1 character set connection utf8 (Global value) latin1 character set database latin1 character set results utf8 (Global value) latin1 character set server latin1 character set system utf8 character sets dir /usr/share/mysql/charsets/ collation connection utf8_general_ci (Global value) latin1_swedish_ci collation database latin1_swedish_ci collation server latin1_swedish_ci concurrent insert ON connect timeout 5 datadir /var/lib/mysql/ date format %Y-%m-%d datetime format %Y-%m-%d %H:%i:%s default week format 0 delay key write ON delayed insert limit 100 delayed insert timeout 300 delayed queue size 1,000 expire logs days 0 flush OFF flush time 0 ft boolean syntax + -><()~*:""&| ft max word len 84 ft min word len 4 ft query expansion limit 20 ft stopword file (built-in) group concat max len 1,024 have archive NO have bdb YES have blackhole engine NO have compress YES have crypt YES have csv NO have example engine NO have geometry YES have innodb YES have isam YES have ndbcluster NO have openssl YES have query cache YES have raid NO have rtree keys YES have symlink YES init connect init file init slave innodb additional mem pool size 1,048,576 innodb autoextend increment 8 innodb buffer pool awe mem mb 0 innodb buffer pool size 8,388,608 innodb data file path ibdata1:10M:autoextend innodb data home dir innodb fast shutdown ON innodb file io threads 4 innodb file per table OFF innodb flush log at trx commit 1 innodb flush method innodb force recovery 0 innodb lock wait timeout 50 innodb locks unsafe for binlog OFF innodb log arch dir innodb log archive OFF innodb log buffer size 1,048,576 innodb log file size 5,242,880 innodb log files in group 2 innodb log group home dir ./ innodb max dirty pages pct 90 innodb max purge lag 0 innodb mirrored log groups 1 innodb open files 300 innodb table locks ON innodb thread concurrency 8 interactive timeout 28,800 join buffer size 131,072 key buffer size 8,388,608 key cache age threshold 300 key cache block size 1,024 key cache division limit 100 language /usr/share/mysql/english/ large files support ON license GPL local infile ON locked in memory OFF log OFF log bin OFF log error log slave updates OFF log slow queries ON log update OFF log warnings 1 long query time 5 low priority updates OFF lower case file system OFF lower case table names 0 max allowed packet 8,387,584 max binlog cache size 4,294,967,295 max binlog size 1,073,741,824 max connect errors 10 max connections 250 max delayed threads 20 max error count 64 max heap table size 16,777,216 max insert delayed threads 20 max join size 4,294,967,295 max length for sort data 1,024 max prepared stmt count 16,382 max relay log size 0 max seeks for key 4,294,967,295 max sort length 1,024 max tmp tables 32 max user connections 0 max write lock count 4,294,967,295 myisam data pointer size 4 myisam max extra sort file size 2,147,483,648 myisam max sort file size 2,147,483,647 myisam recover options OFF myisam repair threads 1 myisam sort buffer size 8,388,608 myisam stats method nulls_unequal net buffer length 16,384 net read timeout 30 net retry count 10 net write timeout 60 new OFF old passwords ON open files limit 1,260 pid file /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid port 3,306 preload buffer size 32,768 prepared stmt count 0 protocol version 10 query alloc block size 8,192 query cache limit 8,388,608 query cache min res unit 4,096 query cache size 16,777,216 query cache type ON query cache wlock invalidate OFF query prealloc size 8,192 range alloc block size 2,048 read buffer size 131,072 read only OFF read rnd buffer size 262,144 relay log purge ON relay log space limit 0 rpl recovery rank 0 secure auth OFF server id 0 skip external locking ON skip networking OFF skip show database OFF slave net timeout 3,600 slave transaction retries 0 slow launch time 2 socket /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock sort buffer size 2,097,144 sql mode sql notes ON sql warnings ON storage engine MyISAM sync binlog 0 sync frm ON sync replication 0 sync replication slave id 0 sync replication timeout 0 system time zone CET table cache 64 table type MyISAM thread cache size 0 thread stack 131,072 time format %H:%i:%s time zone SYSTEM tmp table size 33,554,432 tmpdir transaction alloc block size 8,192 transaction prealloc size 4,096 tx isolation REPEATABLE-READ version 4.1.19-log version bdb Sleepycat Software: Berkeley DB 4.1.24: (April 29, 2006) version comment Source distribution version compile machine i686 version compile os redhat-linux-gnu wait timeout 28,800 ------------ Thank you very much. -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
