Hello,

A new question has been asked in "Galera" by getreal:
--------------------------------
Maybe I'm just missing it somewhere on the site, but I'm trying to find a way 
to contrast overall memory requirements for a Galera cluster compared to that 
of stand-alone mySQL instances.  In my profession we build servers that are 
typically 32GB overall memory running an instance of mySQL within, in which we 
hand 16GB to innodb_buffer_pool_size (the actually size of the mySQL database 
files is upwards of four times that).  The server does other things by the way 
(a 6 GB JVM is also loaded). Our buffer pool hit rate is typically a nice high 
number (over 99%) with that 16GB allocated.  So let's take a simple scenario - 
6 of my stand-alone servers are going to evolve to MariaDB + Galera cluster.  I 
completely realize we need 3 nodes minimum on the Galera side, and I realize we 
now are accommodating about 6 x 64GB of former mySQL database files (as long as 
we presume the database files overall size in mariaDB is about the same as that 
of mySQL).  So I've got 384 GB of database f
 iles, and let's suppose I want to replace this with a 3 node mariaDB+Galera 
cluster.  I know that 384 GB has to be replicated amongst those three nodes, 
storage sizing is not so complex, and I know I can probably get enough CPU 
under these node with 4 vCPUs.  But my question is more so around 
innodb_buffer_pool size for each node.  Do I need to run 6 x 16 GB = 96 GB for 
innodb_buffer_pool_size in each node of that Galera cluster (essentially the 
same ratio 1:4 as I did in mySQL instances with my stand-alone servers) ?   Any 
help appreciated.
