Oganes, are your really using disk partitions as InnoDB data files? If you use raw disk partitions, then the operating system may put a limit on the number of them, for example, 16. But usually InnoDB data files will be just ordinary files of the file system. The number of data files is

The size limitation is becauseof the operating system parameters. In order to use tables larger then 3 GB, use either Redhat 7.2 or Solaris 8. These operating systems allow file sizes greater then 2 GB. For the most part I achievedtables sizes using these operating system of greater the 50 GB.

I disagree. The 4GB slowdown is usualy caused by indexing problems associated with the OS having increased overhead when looking up and inserting data. I have eliminated this slowdown in Solaris and Linux be re-indexing the entire database once it becomes larger then 4GB. This fixes the

Hello everyone, I guess I have the similar question, that has been brought up. I have 36 InnoDB tables, and I have allocated two 2GB partitions for my data. Provided I have very big hard drive, how many partitions at 2GB each could I allocate? As many as my hard drive can handle? I also

Yes and no. With 3.23, the MyISAM format will, by default, have a 4GB limit (32 bits). You can set flags on the table to allow a 64-bit table, and you'll generally hit an OS or physical limitation long before you run out of space. The downside of the 64-bit version is it's considerably

Re: Database Size Limit

This is speculation: They're slower because many operations have to be done using 64 bit values rather than 32 bit values. You set the flag by setting the max data size when creating the table. You can also alter this after the table is created with ALTER TABLE. The doc suggests you're

Well, my server is running on Mandrake 8.0. We're trying to implement database hosting at our site, therefore people should probably have database spaces between 10-50 MB. In Microsoft SQL server you can limit the size of a database when creating it. Is it possible in MySQL ? VVM
