In my.cnf: [mysqld] key_buffer_size=64M myisam_sort_buffer_size=512MB myisam_max_sort_file_size=10000000000 myisam_max_extra_sort_file_size=0 bulk_insert_buffer_size=64MB ...
All variables are set as expected, except myisam_max_sort_file_size, which is set to 4GB. Only if I choose a value smaller than 4GB, or manually execute set global myisam_max_sort_file_size=10000000000; does the variable get updated. Is there any reasoning behind this behavior, or is this simply a bug? -- Eric Jain -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
