Hello I tried upgrading from MySQL-3.21.33 to 3.23.35 on an old linux host. It worked but the new mysql version was *horrible* slow. E.g. under exactly same situations I came to ca. 300 inserts/second with the old and 20 with the new version making it absolutely unusable :-( The only recognisable difference between the both was that the new mostly show | 107 | root | localhost | westend | Query | insert into channel_traffic |(timestamp, hostname, inte ... when I enter mysqladmin processlist whereas the old one mostly said | 107 | root | localhost | westend | Init | insert into channel_traffic |(timestamp, hostname, inte ... I know that a query traverses several states but it is strange that the new version takes so long in this "Init" state. As it works well on a nother host with a recent linux distribution I guess there're some problems with...something... Can anybody explain what "Init" does? thanks in advance, -christian- -- Christian Hammers WESTEND GmbH - Aachen und Dueren Tel 0241/701333-0 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Internet & Security for Professionals Fax 0241/911879 WESTEND ist CISCO Systems Partner - Premium Certified --------------------------------------------------------------------- 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?
