which parameter to tune?
Hi - Before I start fiddling with buffer sizes and what not, is there any documented issue with truncated results of concat_ws() within joined tables, when using an order by clause? Using MySQL 3.23.48 on Linux. Will post SQL queries and table structure if there's not just an answer somewhere that I haven't yet found.
