Familiarize yourself with vmstat if you aren't already and then run
`vmstat 1` and run your queries.  See how the blocked/running processes
look, how much CPU time is in use by the system/user processes and how
many blocks per second the disk is reading/writing.

I'm afraid, you table row  isn't fixed-length row, as far as you'll be using varchar your rows will not be considered to be a
fixed length rows. try to change it to char(60) (BINARY if you don't care for U/L case) this may help. it will be more helpful if
you provide table structure for us...

I have table with approx 6M rows with fixed length, used for site statistics with approx. ++250k rows/day. There are extensive
writes (UPDATE DELAYED) and minor reads and I'm not having problems... As for my config its 2x 1GHz PIII + 1GB RAM + 2 channel
onboard SCSI on 64-bit PCI WITHOUT RAID, 2x 16GB 10,000 RPM SCSI-HDD one disc is used for db data only. As for RAID 0 it is not
very good idea to have databases stored in that manner (safety - if one disk fails, you will lost everything ...).

As I wrote, to keep table fixed-length you must not use varchar. As for datetime I'm using UNSIGNED int(11) and unix_timestamp to
store date and time.

|

ext-3 is so-called journaling file system. it has small performance slow-down (no flame, please ;-))

everyone had been newbie. Keep trying :)

TIPS:
	- check settings for your RAID controller -
		are you using native driver for SCSI/RAID controller ?
		# of TCQ (tagged commands queuing)
		elevator sorting - should be ON
	- do you really need ext3?
	- rethink structure of your table (R. M. Ryordan Designing relational database,  ISBN:073560634X  - it is MS oriented, but
theoretical parts are very good and helpful for any platform)

Yeah, I know.  At this point we are still in 'proof of concept mode'.  At
the point we decide to go live I'll buy a copy. I really don't need more
than 2-3 concurrent connections so it shouldn't set me back too much.
Bottom line is I'm probably 'spending' more on wasted people time than I
would on licenses.

Go for it.  Whatever works works.

Caveat, MSDN is not an actual license for production use, only
development.  If you ever get audited and are using it on a production
machine, you will have to pay the license.

Well, I've got an MSDN subscription so I have access to a legal copy.. the

RE: Slow performance using 3.23 on RH 8.0

2002-12-04 Thread Ledet, Mike
Actually it is hardware Raid 0, not software.  I knew about the safety issue
but I had been told that from a performance stand-point that Raid 0 was the
fastest.

I've watched the disk activity on the IDE drive and there is next to none,
but I guess it's possible something is going on there.

Gnome is because linux is very new to me... I found the GUI to be
comfortable coming from a Windoze world.  Since I first installed I've had a
crash course in doing it from the command line (I'm managing a web and mail
server as well) so at some point I could probably undo it.  

I'll try the variables when I get a chance.

Just as an aside I had a friend running SQL Server on a 2000 box that is a
pretty similar configuration... he added the same 3 columns to a table with
5 keys and 3 times as many columns in less than 2 minutes.

The first thing I would do is toss the ultra ata drive and just use the
scsi drives running raid1, raid0 just isn't safe and hardware raid1 is
much faster than you would think.  This may seem counter-intuitive, but
there are all sorts of bus issues that could be interfering.  You may
very well have more logging going on on the ata drive than you think.

Second, do not install X or gnome at all.  What's the point?

Third, look at these variables (although I doubt they will help much):

set-variable = table_cache=256
set-variable = tmp_table_size=256M

If this doesn't work, get in touch.

2002-12-04 Thread Ledet, Mike
I tried your TOP suggestion but didn't see anything out of the ordinary.
Swap size was constant (6400 or so) and didn't increase or decrease under
load.

I'll try the swap-off idea when I get a chance.

Hi Mike,

i'm a newbie in optimizing the inner structure of a db - so i stick to the
os-part where i might have a vague clue ;-)

did you take a look at the memory / swap-space mysqld used when doing the
query?
(maybe use TOP (add swap to the view by hitting "f" and then "o"), look at
the swapspace used by the mysqld threads, usage of kswapd, loadaverage...)

I once had a lot of performance problems with mysqld 3.23.4x on suse-linux 7
when suddenly the os startet to assign hd-swap-space to some of the mysqld
threads, which slowed down the action dramatically. changing my.cnf didn't
really change the situation - but for testing you could just do "swapoff -a"
and compare the results.

goodluck,
niko
