Hi list,

Im having problems with bulk writes (restores from mysqldumps, alters,
delete in (select ...)) with innodb. The servers are at amazon EC2 instances
w/ 15G ram and raid0 4disks EBS.
The problem starts when I run bulk writes like an alter table or a restore
from mysqldump, its starts processing more than 50000 rows/s but suddenly
the ratio goes down to 100 rows /sec. and then its stucked at this ratio
even if I restart MySQL. The only way to get good perfomance again is
deleting all innodb files (ibdata, iblog files) and restoring the DB again.

The DBs are relative small about 70M rows and 10Gb size. I can repeat this
behavior all the time just running 2 restores of the same database.

Another example when its stucked:

I want to delete 1M rows
"delete from table where id IN (select id from ....)"  deletes 100 rows /
sec
but if I run 1 Million "delete from table where id = xxx" deletes 10000 rows
/ sec

The problem is just only with writes on innodb, I can perfectly run
mysqldumps and bulk inserts on MyISAM.

This is happening with all MySQL 5.1.x versions I tested.

Any one have a clue about this issue??

Thanks in advance
Max
