So, let's say there is this centos box is running a mysql database that has db tables that are pretty big, (some > 1x10^6 rows)
and when one runs mysqldump on the database, it spikes the load average, as reported by top, on the box to about 15 this box also is running apache when the load average spikes to 10, apache pages are SLOW to load. how can one throttle the mysqldump so it doesn't use as many system resources? -r /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
