Silly question, but with MySQL default configuration (say, huge.cnf), does it automatically "put the entire database in RAM" when there's enough available? I realize there are lots of parameters in the cnf file, some of which I've set. But for a 2 or 3GB database, and a server with 16GB of RAM, is there anything to do beyond using a generous cnf file to maximize MySQL's use of RAM?
