MySQL performance drops occasionally

553 Contributor
My mySQL very much slows down occasionally.

I then have to shut the instance down and re-start it, this resolves the problem.

what could have been causing mySQL to slow down occasionally.

Thanks

Hi.

I'm not sure what would cause MySQL to lose performance like that. Are you executing complex queries? using large temporary tables? or some other memory-intense query?

Is it possible that there is some other process running on the computer that may be slowing it down? Maybe some automated script that ends up in an infinite loop or something?

Hi, I am using MySQL for a table which will have 100M+ records, avg length of records being 130 bytes.

We have an application with a SQL Server 2000 back end that is fairly database intensive -- lots of fairly frequent queries, inserts, updates -- the gamut. The application does not make use of performance hogs like cursors, but I know there are lots of ways the application could be made more efficient database-wise. The server code is running VB6 of all things, using COM+ database interfaces. There are some clustered and non-clustered...

Hello, I have a client (customer) who asked the question : "Why would I buy and use UDB, when MySql is free?" I had to say I was stunned. I have no experience with MySql, so I was left sort of stammering and sputtering, and managed to pull out something I heard a couple of years back - that there was no real transaction safety in MySql. In flight transactions could be lost.
