Hi all,

I have a db that is connection heavy running on FreeBSD 4.9. The server was compiled with Linux Threads enabled.

I am searching for performance tuning information. Outside of enabling Linux Threads I haven't been able to find much else. I am under the impression that I should be using innodb tables instead of myisam, and I am sure there are a slew of other things that I could tune. Is there a site/document dedicated to this? My copy of high performany mysql by Jeremy Zawodny is in the mail, so any help in the mean time would be greatly appreciated.

I am getting "cannot create new thread" errors on my system when load gets extremely heavy, are there any additional things I can do to help this? Would FreeBSD 5.1 be any better?

Thanks in advance,

Max,
From my experience MyISAM tables are faster for Selects, and InnoDb is faster for many simultaneous updates/inserts from various users. Single user updates are faster for MyISAM.


For tuning into have you tried:
