I'm a bit of a linux newbie and a newbie to replication, so I'll try to ask this
question simply...
we're using mysql 4 to do replication, and I notice on the master I have this from
using mytop:
Id User Host/IP DB Time Cmd Query or State
-- ---- ------- -- ---- --- ----------
2670 root localhost rmps 0 Query show full processlist
2668 repl rh-mysql-4 409 Binlog Has sent all binlog to
slave; waiting for binlog to be updated
2666 repl rh-mysql-2 411 Binlog Has sent all binlog to
slave; waiting for binlog to be updated
2667 repl rh-mysql-3 411 Binlog Has sent all binlog to
slave; waiting for binlog to be updated
it looks like three seperate threads are running on the master here, one for each
slave. in this particular machine, we have 2 HT processors, so 4 possible CPU threads.
if it's not done automatically by Linux (RedHat 9) or MySQL, can I configure these
threads to use their own CPU to maximize the performance? I assume MySQL or Linux will
do this automatically.
we have the same machines in use for the slaves...so can I make the slave IO thread
execute on one processor, and the slave SQL thread execute on another? does this
happen automatically as well?
thanks,
