Why do you want to use both backends? MyISAM and InnoDB have their own index-cache (key_buffer and innodb_buffer_pool), so you might be better off with just one of them. > > What is the best way for me to configure RAID? > > Here is the kind of load I am talking about: > Uptime: 1749850 Threads: 44 Questions: 1266402021 Slow queries: 16923 > Opens: 162177 Flush tables: 1 Open tables: 64 Queries per second avg: > 723.720 These figures are useless. 723q/s is nothing if the layout is simple or the dataset is small or if these are only selects. I've seen quite old servers do 7000q/s with little or no tuning. -- Per Andreas Buer -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
