Re: Optimization And Memory Size

2002-03-19 Thread Ken Menzel

Hi Howard,
   I am trying to think of ideas.  I have several databases with
tables over 1.4G and rows still add quickly.  How about available
descriptors,  what are these values:
| Open_tables  | 2738   |
| Open_files   | 5013   |
| Open_streams | 0  |
| Opened_tables| 81542  |
| Questions| 31719361   |
|
this is a problem,  I have 81542 opened tables,  this sever needs more
file descriptors.  (I will look at this right away!,  but my server is
still running pretty well.)

Maybe you could include the output from show variables and show
status?  How fast is your SCSI drive subsystem,  I assume you are
using 7200 RPM SCSI drives at least?

Cordially,
Ken

You have written the following: 

I have a mysql database table that is currently 1.5G in size with well over 
a
million records. It is running on a twin pentium 3 1G processor machine with 
SuSE Linux version 1.4. 

Recently inserts have become VERY slow (several seconds). As I am adding
around 7K new fields a day, this is becoming a big problem. 

I recently increased the machine memory from 512K to 2G at some expense! It 
made no difference. I am using the HUGE version of my.cnf as shipped. 

Anybody got any ideas how to speed things up. Why did the memory increase
not help at all??? 

Howard
