Just a quick graphical presentation of the load rate with
InfiniDB importing 23.9 billion rows in about 12 1/2
hours. Rows per second is just north of .5 million
rows per second.
Your milage will obviously vary based on row width, disk
configuration, etc., but the expectation would be that the load
rate is stable over a very wide range of
cardinalities.

Thanks to all who showed up at the North Texas MySQL

Pizza, and beer.
Benjamin Wood talked on the latest news on MySQL products and
Robin Schumacher from Calpont discussed building high performance
analytic databases.
And Basil won the drawing for the Amazon Kindle!
See you at the next meeting January 4th!
DRBD has entered a new phase. After being developed out of tree for 9 years, and after an extended review and streamlining phase since March, Phil submitted DRBD to be merged into 2.6.32 release of the Linux mainline kernel. The submission was accepted by block layer maintainer Jens Axboe, who merged DRBD in September, then deferred to the 2.6.33 merge window, and this morning Linus …
[Read more]Just got the following in my email this morning. I sure wish they had done this earlier. “Free Inbound Data Transfer (until June 30, 2010) Data Transfer into AWS will be free of charge from now through June 30, 2010, making it even easier for customers to get their data into AWS. This applies to [...]
There’s one stage in InnoDB crash recovery where it reads log file, you know, this one:
InnoDB: Doing recovery: scanned up to log sequence number 354164119040 InnoDB: Doing recovery: scanned up to log sequence number 354169361920
On a machine with bigger logs it will start spending nearly 100% CPU somewhere in recv_scan_log_recs. Guess what it does…. -fno-inline builds to the rescue:
#0 mem_block_get_len at ./include/mem0mem.ic:86 #1 mem_heap_get_size at ./include/mem0mem.ic:591 #2 recv_scan_log_recs at log/log0recv.c:2727
And:
samples % symbol name 8467 72.9222 mem_heap_get_size 291 2.5062 recv_add_to_hash_table 95 0.8182 mem_block_get_len
To speak in layman’s terms, InnoDB does SUM(LENGTH(allocation)) on its relatively wide memory (tens, hundreds of thousands of entries) arena, FOR EVERY LOG SEGMENT, to make sure it didn’t run out of available …
