Mysql on Ultrasparc T2 and floating point performance

2009-04-22 Thread Rod Heyd
Hi, I've been running mysql on a T1000 (Ultrasparc T1) system for several years now, and while I've been happy with the performance overall, the poor floating point capability on these systems has been a disappointment. Recently, I got my hands on a Sunfire T5420 system and I've been comparing the

Hello, I'm trying to set up a replication slave as read-only, but the read-only part doesn't seem to be working. Replication between the master and the slave works fine. I have added the read-only keyword to the slave's my.cnf, and looking at the output of show variables indicates that read-onl

Thanks for you responses! This list has proven to be for useful to pick pick the brains of other DBA's. I think we are probably going to go the route of splitting the different pieces of data into seperate columns, while keeping the original product_id, since we have a lot of third party applicat

Hi Everyone, I've got a little debate that maybe you can all help me settle. I have three tables that I need to join, but there are performance problems with the joins due to some misunderstandings of my predecessor about what's needed to join the tables efficiently. Here's the setup. t1 has a

Improving the performance of joins

2005-05-16 Thread Rod Heyd
I have a question about joins. My situation is as follows: I have 5 tables identical in structure. Each table represents essentially the same data, however, the data in each table represents a different "version." The processing involved in generating the values stored in each table may have ch
