Recently, I upgraded some moderately taxed mysql servers from 3.23.49a to 4.0.4 (all installed via redhat rpms downloaded from mysql.com). The motivation for the upgrade was actually that replication seems a little flaky under 3.23.49a. For example, we've had unexplained corrupt binlog issues. (If anyone has any advice on this, that'd be appreciated.)
About 20 hours after the upgrade, and then periodically after that, the machine the server was on would grind to a halt with a load of 100-200. It was difficult to grab any information at all about what was goin' on considering the load. Once mysqld was killed & restarted, things would return to normal until some period later when the machine would grind to a halt once again. Any advice? What should we looking for? One issue might be that we have the maximum number of connections set way too high for the 1GB of memory the box has. --j --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
