We use a setup with an InnoDB on our cluster (>10'000 domains, >100'000 accounts). We convert MyISAM to InnoDB without problem. The only one chage in Policyd is the INSERT DELAY -> INSERT With a policyd database size of 3.4Go on a dual xenon 2.4Ghz 6Go RAM it perform really nice without any trouble during the last 2 month > Are you able to switch your Policyd database over to InnoDB? > (this will require some work, including a few Policyd changes) > > Cami > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace. > It's the best place to buy or sell services for > just about anything Open Source. > http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;164216239;13503038;w?http://sf.net/marketplace > _______________________________________________ > policyd-users mailing list > policyd-users@lists.sourceforge.net > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/policyd-users > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
