I would like to optimize the configuration settings for this beast of a machine, here are the specs:
Quad Xeon 3ghz (4x2 = 8 cpus), 512 cache 16 gigs ram running Redhat Enterprise 3.0 AS All tables are InnoDB.
I read this warning in the MySQL documentation: *Warning:* On GNU/Linux x86, you must be careful not to set memory usage too high. |glibc| will allow the process heap to grow over thread stacks, which will crash your server.
But at the same time it says:
# Set buffer pool size to 50-80% of your computer's memory, # but make sure on Linux x86 total memory usage is < 2GB
Does this mean that MySQL wont make use of the 16gb it has total ?
I had to set the value to 1G to make it even start up.
What other parameters can I tweak in the conf for maximum performance ?
Thanks
