 Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks is advance


Watch your top (or ps -ax) output. Anything odd there?

Nothing unusual - mysqld processes, nothing else...

 Try stopping mysqld and running myisamchk -r on all tables.

first of all, I use mostly innodb tables, and secondly, and besides, there
was indeed an unclean shutdown recently but already several hours had
passed so it couldn't be the cause of it as it seems.

Load Average more than 400

2003-10-28 Thread Varshavchick Alexander
Hi gurus,

can you please hint as what parameters I have monitor to find the cause of
sudden splashes of load of a FreeBSD 4.6.2-RELEASE server? This box is
acting as a database/mysql server and periodically goes up to 400 of load
average values and then gradually returns to a normal 4-5 value. The
server is a dual Xeon with 4G phisical memory, mysql 4.0.7/linuxthreads.
During the highest load, the amount of Inact memory remains of about 2G,
and swap is used only minimally, so this cannot be the case. There are no
messages in a system log or mysql log.

Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks is advance
