…DBD:: MySQL package for server communication instead of spawning the MySQL command line client introduced a regression which caused innobackupex -galera-info option to fail. Bug fixed # 1180672 .

The format of xtrabackup_galera_info was missing the ‘:' separator between the values of wsrep_local_state_uuid and wsrep_last_committed . Bug fixed # 1181222 .

…of date or are known bad versions. For example, there are two versions of the DBD:: mysql Perl module that have problems. And there are certain versions of MySQL that have critical bugs. Version check will warn you about these if your system is running them.

What's new in 2.2 is that, whereas this feature (specifically, the option in tools: -version-check) was off by default, now it's on by default. If the IO::Socket:: SSL Perl module is installed (easily available through …

vCache vs. vCache - MySQL parameter testing

The first test was designed to look solely at vCache performance under some different sets of MySQL configuration parameters. For example, given that the front-end device is a very fast PCIe SSD, would it make more sense to configure MySQL as if it were using SSD storage or to just use an optimized HDD storage configuration? After creating a vCache device with the default configuration, I started with a baseline HDD configuration for MySQL

…proving the bottleneck. In surfing I found that MariaDB had "spun" out of mysql. MariaDB is a drop-in replacement for mysql, and is totally open source. My test bed is a mac-mini, and sure I can throw hardware at the problem, but its far more interesting to look at optimizing. So I used brew, a open-source package manager for osx, I installed MariaDb. I had a existing 20Gig database, and it picked it up, and used it just fine. The surprising thing is I saw a 30% increase in performance …

…and every one has 4 processes which every one has 25 workers. As we are all on EC2, we use spot instances for part of the cluster so we can add more workers as needed, so it could grow up from 400 to 800 or more.

The technology is nothing special but solid, Rails + Redis + Sharded MySQL.

Thanks Libin and everyone else who entered. I hope Sidekiq Pro makes your system even better!

…results showing the QPS over 5 second periods with the new DROP TABLE implementation ( MysQL version >= 5.5.23) and DROP TABLE running in the background:

Finally comes the benchmark results showing the QPS over 5 second periods with the Lazy Drop Table implementation in Percona Server and DROP TABLE running in the background:

So we can compare the graphs above, and see that there are dips in QPS whenever table is dropped, MySQL 5.5.23 does show an improvement over MySQL version …
