restoring backup, problem with BLOB?

2006-03-14 Thread Andrew stolarz
Hello List,

I am restoring a MySQL backup (about 40MB), and its taking well over 2 hours
to restore.

the area where its really hanging is when its importing the "BLOB"
There are about 1200 records, totaling about 10mb in size for these blobs.

I am running MyISAM,  my current memory settings read:

bulk_insert_buffer_size 805306368
innodb_additional_mem_pool_size 7340032
innodb_buffer_pool_awe_mem_mb   0
innodb_buffer_pool_size 318767104
innodb_log_buffer_size  4194304
join_buffer_size131072
key_buffer_size 164626432
myisam_sort_buffer_size 193986560
net_buffer_length   16384
read_buffer_size61440
read_rnd_buffer_size258048
sort_buffer_size262136

Any ideas whats going on here?

its a 3 ghz P4, running 1024 ram.


MySQL Reference Manual source?

2006-01-02 Thread Andrew stolarz
Hi all, Im sure the Online HTML mysql reference manual is something built by
mysql specifly to handle the manual.
(the one found at http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/index.html )

Does anyone know of any open source programs for creating your own online
manuals like the MySQL Reference manual? is the MySQL one available
somewhere?

ransactions to run without a need to write the log to disk until the
transaction commit. Thus, if you have big transactions, making the log
buffer big will save disk I/O.
innodb_log_buffer_size=1M
#Specifies when log files are flushed to disk.
innodb_flush_log_at_trx_commit=1

MyIsam Vs InnoDB

2005-11-24 Thread Andrew stolarz
Hello List,

When I do a bulk import into a MyIsam engine database, I can reach about 2-3
thousand records imported per second.

However when I use the InnoDB engine, I am only importing about 30-50
records per second?

Am I missing something here?

its a P4 3 Ghz machine with 1024mb ram. running MySQL 5.0

thanks

Andrew

max Mysql database size

2005-09-14 Thread Andrew stolarz
Hello Everyone,
 Hopefully easy question,
 What is the Max size of a MySQL server database?


URGENT --- OSX 10.4 ODBC driver error

2005-09-06 Thread Andrew stolarz
Hello All,
 I am downloading and installing the "Installer package (Mac OS X v10.3)" 
from the mysql site.
I am installing on a OSX 10.4 machine, at the end of the install I get an 
error message saying
 "The application MYODBCConfig quit unexpedically after it was reopened, max 
OSX and other applications are not effected etc. etc."
 its version : 3.51.11-1
 so this ODBC driver will not work on the 10.4 machine? as right next to the 
download it states OSX v10.3
 (installing on 10.3 works no problem)
  many thanks
 Andrew


Re: MySQL 4.1 full throttled?

2005-08-18 Thread Andrew stolarz
Hello,
 I did a complete new install on another machine but this time I selected 
the dedicated server option during the first setup, reran the same process 
and its going about 3 times faster then it did before.. so it looks like I 
am on the right track!
 the current sizes I have for the following are: whats the ideal setup for 
these?
 key_buffer_size = 37748736
myisam_max_sort_file_size = 48234496
bulk_insert_buffer_size = 8388608
 any other sugestions where to look?
 many thanks everyone,
 Andrew

MySQL 4.1 full throttled?

2005-08-18 Thread Andrew stolarz
Hi folks,
 I just downloaded MySQL 4.1 to see if its a go ahead with our application,
 I am doing a tranfser from our current datafile to MySQL, its taking about 
45 min to do this process..
 when I do the same process and transfer to a M$ SQL server, it takes about 
2 min max.
 is the 4.1 of mySQL that I downloaded throttled somehow until I purchase 
the license for it?
 many thanks
 Andrew
