If you use our binary, 2.4.17 should be just  fine ...

I've used the 2.4.17 kernel for a week now and it works very well. No 
problems with kswapd and high loadavg any more.

Where did you get that? The MySQL site?

Some info about the system:
  Dell PowerEdge 8450
  4 x Xeon 700
  4GB of RAM
  Intel GBit ethernet connection

Software:
  Base RedHat 7.2 installation
  Unpatched kernel 2.4.17


2.4.17 has problems with heavy database usage. Does this happen on the
supported kernels as well? (I'm guessing yes, this doesn't seem to
have anything to do with the kernel... you might want to check if
anything suspicious show up in dmesg, though)

Re: Stability problems on 4-way server

Hi,

What about a 2.4.17 with 'aa' patch, as it seems to have much less VM
problem than vanilla kernel or rmap-10c patched kernel... (I have personnaly
installed 2.4.17rc2 + patch rc2aa2 with no problem :
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/andrea/kernels/v2.4/2.4.17rc2a
a2.bz2 )

Best Regards,

 Hi,
 
 We are running MySQL version 3.23.43 on one of our servers and have some
 stability
 problems the occur about every 1-2 days. When it happens everythings keeps
 working
 but the load goes up to about 80. After stopping and restarting MySQL
 everything
 goes back to normal (load average about 0.5). There are usually only a few
 connection
 open at the same time (about 20) and we have no slow or heavy duty
 queries. Is there
 anyone who had a similar problem? We're not sure what could possibly cause
 this.
 
 Some info about the system:
   Dell PowerEdge 8450
   4 x Xeon 700
   4GB of RAM
   Intel GBit ethernet connection
 
 Software:
   Base RedHat 7.2 installation
   Unpatched kernel 2.4.17
 
 The database-files are placed on a dedicated raid-5 disk.
 
 Note: Displaying the processlist does not reveal any unusual or special
 queries
 when the problem occurs. They just run slower because of the high load.
 
 Regards,
   Dennis
 
 

Please install and use latest 3.23 binary RPM from our site.

If you are not using our binary, then it is probably a cause of
instability.
