solaris box with 16 Gbytes of memory os using 5.8, mysql at 4.0.20_64bit with key_buffer_size set to 6144m, the mysqld crashes and re-starts (mysql_safe) under heavy load (1day to 1week). prior to this, key_buffer_size set to 1.5G and no crashes since early 2004.
the process size is 2G even though I specify key_buffer_size to 6144m. I backed off to 4096m and the process size is correctly set to 4G. has been stable ever since. tried mysql version 4.1.15 64bit with same issue. will not set the process size any larger than 4G. anyone have ideas on how to track down this issue? (checked ulimit for csh shell and vmemory is unlimited) appreciate help. -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
