There's no such limit, see pthread_create(3) and pthread.h: #define PTHREAD_THREADS_MAX __ULONG_MAX but the 1500 is suspicious. Suspicious enough to be a MySQL configuration value or compile time option. The only way to get to the bottom of it, is to watch the number of threads in the mysql process and attach ktrace to it the moment it approaches 1500, to see if pthread_create actually does return EAGAIN and get a hint as to where. My suspicion however is that the thread abstraction of MySQL sets EAGAIN. A my.cnf certainly would help. -- Mel ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

Either way I don't think it's the problem. mysqld uses 1500 threads and many apache processes waiting for mysql to reply. You should figure out why that is, cause that sounds like a query that's holding a table lock and needing to sort the intermediate result set, stalling all other queries. If you really have ~1500 connections and consider that normal operation, then you may need more kernel memory. amd64 doesn't have a process memory limit (feature or bug I'm undecided on), so you can delete those. Instead set: vm.kmem_size_max="1024M" vm.kmem_size="1024M" -- Mel ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
