tuning mysql
hello there,
I run most of my sites using mysql and I would like to know how to tune up the my.cnf
here's what I have in the file and using http://www.day32.com/MySQL/
let me know what are the best options since the server load is average around 6 and im trying to lower it to about 1 or 2.
im using Centos v5.6 and mysql with apache

SLOW QUERIES
The slow query log is enabled.
Current long_query_time = 10.000000 sec.
You have 18736 out of 51940881 that take longer than 10.000000 sec. to complete
Your long_query_time seems to be fine
BINARY UPDATE LOG
The binary update log is NOT enabled.
You will not be able to do point in time recovery
See http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/point-in-time-recovery.html
WORKER THREADS
Current thread_cache_size = 8
Current threads_cached = 7
Current threads_per_sec = 0
Historic threads_per_sec = 0
Your thread_cache_size is fine
MAX CONNECTIONS
Current max_connections = 500
Current threads_connected = 1
Historic max_used_connections = 173
The number of used connections is 34% of the configured maximum.
Your max_connections variable seems to be fine.
No InnoDB Support Enabled!
MEMORY USAGE
Max Memory Ever Allocated : 13.45 G
Configured Max Per-thread Buffers : 32.80 G
Configured Max Global Buffers : 2.09 G
Configured Max Memory Limit : 34.90 G
Physical Memory : 7.92 G
Max memory limit exceeds 90% of physical memory
KEY BUFFER
Current MyISAM index space = 1.26 G
Current key_buffer_size = 1.31 G
Key cache miss rate is 1 : 13667
Key buffer free ratio = 43 %
Your key_buffer_size seems to be too high.
Perhaps you can use these resources elsewhere
QUERY CACHE
Query cache is enabled
Current query_cache_size = 800 M
Current query_cache_used = 159 M
Current query_cache_limit = 384 M
Current Query cache Memory fill ratio = 19.91 %
Current query_cache_min_res_unit = 4 K
Query Cache is 26 % fragmented
Run "FLUSH QUERY CACHE" periodically to defragment the query cache memory
If you have many small queries lower 'query_cache_min_res_unit' to reduce fragmentation.
Your query_cache_size seems to be too high.
Perhaps you can use these resources elsewhere
MySQL won't cache query results that are larger than query_cache_limit in size
SORT OPERATIONS
Current sort_buffer_size = 32 M
Current read_rnd_buffer_size = 32 M
Sort buffer seems to be fine
JOINS
Current join_buffer_size = 1.00 M
You have had 1553861 queries where a join could not use an index properly
You should enable "log-queries-not-using-indexes"
Then look for non indexed joins in the slow query log.
If you are unable to optimize your queries you may want to increase your
join_buffer_size to accommodate larger joins in one pass.
Note! This script will still suggest raising the join_buffer_size when
ANY joins not using indexes are found.
OPEN FILES LIMIT
Current open_files_limit = 8192 files
The open_files_limit should typically be set to at least 2x-3x
that of table_cache if you have heavy MyISAM usage.
Your open_files_limit value seems to be fine
TABLE CACHE
Current table_open_cache = 2048 tables
Current table_definition_cache = 256 tables
You have a total of 700 tables
You have 1322 open tables.
The table_cache value seems to be fine
You should probably increase your table_definition_cache value.
TEMP TABLES
Current max_heap_table_size = 1.75 G
Current tmp_table_size = 384 M
Of 196197 temp tables, 13% were created on disk
Created disk tmp tables ratio seems fine
TABLE SCANS
Current read_buffer_size = 2 M
Current table scan ratio = 217 : 1
read_buffer_size seems to be fine
TABLE LOCKING
Current Lock Wait ratio = 1 : 177
You may benefit from selective use of InnoDB.
If you have long running SELECT's against MyISAM tables and perform
frequent updates consider setting 'low_priority_updates=1'
If you have a high concurrency of inserts on Dynamic row-length tables
consider setting 'concurrent_insert=2'.

# *** Replication related settings
# Unique server identification number between 1 and 2^32-1. This value

# "master-host" is not set, but will MySQL will not function as a master
# if it is omitted.
server-id = 1
# Replication Slave (comment out master section to use this)
#
# To configure this host as a replication slave, you can choose between
# two methods :
#
# 1) Use the CHANGE MASTER TO command (fully described in our manual) -
# the syntax is:
#
# CHANGE MASTER TO MASTER_HOST=<host>, MASTER_PORT=<port>,
# MASTER_USER=<user>, MASTER_PASSWORD=<password> ;
#
# where you replace <host>, <user>, <password> by quoted strings and
# <port> by the master's port number (3306 by default).
#
# Example:
#
# CHANGE MASTER TO MASTER_HOST='125.564.12.1', MASTER_PORT=3306,
# MASTER_USER='joe', MASTER_PASSWORD='secret';
#
# OR
#
# 2) Set the variables below. However, in case you choose this method, then
# start replication for the first time (even unsuccessfully, for example
# if you mistyped the password in master-password and the slave fails to
# connect), the slave will create a master.info file, and any later
# changes in this file to the variable values below will be ignored and
# overridden by the content of the master.info file, unless you shutdown
# the slave server, delete master.info and restart the slaver server.
# For that reason, you may want to leave the lines below untouched
# (commented) and instead use CHANGE MASTER TO (see above)
#
# required unique id between 2 and 2^32 - 1
# (and different from the master)
# defaults to 2 if master-host is set
# but will not function as a slave if omitted
#server-id = 2
#
# The replication master for this slave - required
#master-host = <hostname>
#
# The username the slave will use for authentication when connecting
# to the master - required
#master-user = <username>
#
# The password the slave will authenticate with when connecting to
# the master - required
#master-password = <password>
#
# The port the master is listening on.
# optional - defaults to 3306
#master-port = <port>
# Make the slave read-only. Only users with the SUPER privilege and the

# the slave instead of the master

#*** MyISAM Specific options
# Size of the Key Buffer, used to cache index blocks for MyISAM tables.
# Do not set it larger than 30% of your available memory, as some memory

# not set it larger than "key_buffer_size" for optimal performance.
# This buffer is allocated when a bulk insert is detected.
bulk_insert_buffer_size = 64M

-- MYSQL PERFORMANCE TUNING PRIMER --
- By: Matthew Montgomery -
MySQL Version 5.1.58-log i686
Uptime = 2 days 0 hrs 11 min 3 sec
Avg. qps = 100
Total Questions = 17404948
Threads Connected = 4
Server has been running for over 48hrs.
It should be safe to follow these recommendations
To find out more information on how each of these
runtime variables effects performance visit:
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/server-system-variables.html
Visit http://www.mysql.com/products/enterprise/advisors.html
for info about MySQL's Enterprise Monitoring and Advisory Service
SLOW QUERIES
The slow query log is enabled.
Current long_query_time = 2.000000 sec.
You have 1060580 out of 17404969 that take longer than 2.000000 sec. to complete
Your long_query_time seems to be fine
BINARY UPDATE LOG
The binary update log is enabled
The expire_logs_days is not set.
The mysqld will retain the entire binary log until RESET MASTER or PURGE MASTER LOGS commands are run manually
Setting expire_logs_days will allow you to remove old binary logs automatically
See http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/purge-master-logs.html
Binlog sync is not enabled, you could loose binlog records during a server crash
WORKER THREADS
Current thread_cache_size = 8
Current threads_cached = 6
Current threads_per_sec = 0
Historic threads_per_sec = 0
Your thread_cache_size is fine
MAX CONNECTIONS
Current max_connections = 100
Current threads_connected = 5
Historic max_used_connections = 101
The number of used connections is 101% of the configured maximum.
You should raise max_connections
INNODB STATUS
Current InnoDB index space = 1.67 G
Current InnoDB data space = 17.78 G
Current InnoDB buffer pool free = 0 %
Current innodb_buffer_pool_size = 2.00 G
Depending on how much space your innodb indexes take up it may be safe
to increase this value to up to 2 / 3 of total system memory
MEMORY USAGE
Max Memory Ever Allocated : 5.58 G
Configured Max Per-thread Buffers : 3.43 G
Configured Max Global Buffers : 2.11 G
Configured Max Memory Limit : 5.55 G
Physical Memory : 7.92 G
Max memory limit seem to be within acceptable norms
KEY BUFFER
Current MyISAM index space = 143 K
Current key_buffer_size = 32 M
Key cache miss rate is 1 : 9301
Key buffer free ratio = 88 %
Your key_buffer_size seems to be fine
QUERY CACHE
Query cache is enabled
Current query_cache_size = 64 M
Current query_cache_used = 23 M
Current query_cache_limit = 2 M
Current Query cache Memory fill ratio = 37.40 %
Current query_cache_min_res_unit = 4 K
MySQL won't cache query results that are larger than query_cache_limit in size
SORT OPERATIONS
Current sort_buffer_size = 8 M
Current read_rnd_buffer_size = 16 M
Sort buffer seems to be fine
JOINS
Current join_buffer_size = 8.00 M
You have had 448721 queries where a join could not use an index properly
join_buffer_size >= 4 M
This is not advised
You should enable "log-queries-not-using-indexes"
Then look for non indexed joins in the slow query log.
OPEN FILES LIMIT
Current open_files_limit = 8192 files
The open_files_limit should typically be set to at least 2x-3x
that of table_cache if you have heavy MyISAM usage.
Your open_files_limit value seems to be fine
TABLE CACHE
Current table_open_cache = 2048 tables
Current table_definition_cache = 256 tables
You have a total of 700 tables
You have 1098 open tables.
The table_cache value seems to be fine
You should probably increase your table_definition_cache value.
TEMP TABLES
Current max_heap_table_size = 64 M
Current tmp_table_size = 64 M
Of 68624 temp tables, 15% were created on disk
Created disk tmp tables ratio seems fine
TABLE SCANS
Current read_buffer_size = 2 M
Current table scan ratio = 48 : 1
read_buffer_size seems to be fine
TABLE LOCKING
Current Lock Wait ratio = 1 : 2075315
Your table locking seems to be fine
