That worked, thanks a lot. Now I am wondering if their is any other modification on my system with 4x450Mhz, 4gig RAM, mysql 4.0.13 that I should look into to improve the performance Here is my cnf file look like [client] #password = your_password port = 3306 socket = /tmp/mysql.sock [mysqld] port = 3306 socket = /tmp/mysql.sock skip-locking key_buffer = 384M max_allowed_packet = 1M table_cache = 512 sort_buffer_size = 2M read_buffer_size = 2M myisam_sort_buffer_size = 64M thread_cache = 8 query_cache_size = 32M # Try number of CPU's*2 for thread_concurrency thread_concurrency = 8 #skip-networking #log-bin server-id = 1 # Uncomment the following if you are using InnoDB tables innodb_data_home_dir = /usr/local/mysql/data/ innodb_data_file_path = ibdata1:1882M;ibdata2:10M:autoextend innodb_log_group_home_dir = /usr/local/mysql/data/ innodb_log_arch_dir = /usr/local/mysql/data/ innodb_buffer_pool_size = 384M innodb_additional_mem_pool_size = 20M innodb_log_file_size = 100M innodb_log_buffer_size = 8M innodb_flush_log_at_trx_commit = 1 innodb_lock_wait_timeout = 50 [mysqldump] quick max_allowed_packet = 16M [mysql] no-auto-rehash # Remove the next comment character if you are not familiar with SQL #safe-updates <---- Also not sure what I should do here, keep the comments? [isamchk] key_buffer = 256M sort_buffer_size = 256M read_buffer = 2M write_buffer = 2M [myisamchk] key_buffer = 256M sort_buffer_size = 256M read_buffer = 2M write_buffer = 2M [mysqlhotcopy] interactive-timeout I am doing any replication. I have just one server. I am using MyISAM and InnoDB Type tables and Row formats were Dynamic Thanks again -- Asif Iqbal http://pgpkeys.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x8B686E08 There's no place like 127.0.0.1 -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
