Greetings Everyone, I am new to this list - I have lurked for awhile and have examined the archives - if I am out of form in my questions please let me know.
My situation is this - I have acquired a red hat 7.3 server at a new pop. I am moving our MySQL driven web applications over to this new server over the coming week. It is not live, so I can mess around as required to make sure everything is 100% before doing so. The hardware is a dual x342 IBM rack mount with 1GB of RAM and 10,000 RPM drives. It will only be running apache / perl and MySQL. I have been referring to this document: http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/Linux.html I have made a post to the red hat users list to help me determine how my linuxthreads has been configured (I did not install the OS) and from there want to configure MySQL for the maximum load I can. Some performance hits under lower loads is acceptable. Currently, I have 3.23.49 installed which came pre-installed for me. I am hoping to get some ideas from some of the gurus towards how high I can up the settings for the above hardware configuration assuming my threading has been tweaked appropriately. Thank you in advance for any help you can offer. I am new to this level of system administration and have been reading till my eyes blur getting up to speed.
