In the last few months, I had to install Percona Server 5.7 (PS5.7) on Debian a few times. I was regularly annoyed by apt-get -y install percona-server-server-5.7 prompting me for a password. But that annoyance did not push me to investigate the subject in detail: it was always a quick manual fix and Googling did not lead to a straightforward solution. However in the last days, I had to

Finding out the MySQL performance regression due to kernel mitigation for Meltdown CPU vulnerability
Update: I included the results for when PCID is disabled, for comparison, as a worse case scenario.
After learning about Meltdown and Spectre, I waited patiently to get a fix from my OS vendor. However, there were several reports of performance impact due to the kernel mitigation- for example on the PostgresQL developers mailing list there was reports of up to 23% throughput loss; Red Hat engineers report a regression range of 1-20%, but setting OLTP systems as the worse type of workload. As it will be highly dependent on the hardware and workload, I decided of doing some test myself for the …

For the impatient:
# echo -e "deb http://repo.mysql.com/apt/debian/ stretch mysql-5.7\ndeb-src http://repo.mysql.com/apt/debian/ stretch mysql-5.7" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mysql.list # wget -O /tmp/RPM-GPG-KEY-mysql https://repo.mysql.com/RPM-GPG-KEY-mysql # apt-key add /tmp/RPM-GPG-KEY-mysql # apt update # apt install mysql-server
In the latest stable version of Debian, if you ask to install mysql-server, you now get installed mariadb automatically, with no (evident) way of installing Oracle’s MySQL. Any major version upgrade has to be done carefully (not only for MariaDB, but also for MySQL and Postgres), and I bet that a MySQL 5.5 to MariaDB 10.1 will cause a huge confusion. Not only it will fail user expectations, I think this will cause large issues now that MariaDB has chosen to become a “hard” fork, and become incompatible in many ways with MySQL. Not only the server upgrade will cause user struggle, the connector is …
