MYSQL :: Slow Mysql Select *,

Very Slow Select
The line indicated below from my php script is very slow (about 10 seconds). I have this field indexed so I thought that it would be much faster. Could someone tell me what might be wrong?

I'm also including the dump of the table definitions. This is a cd cataloging database.

Right now the filenames table is empty and I'm trying to populate it, but at the rate it's going it would take days. I have about 700,000 records in the 'files' table, but none in the 'filenames' table yet. Code:

SELECT WHERE IN To Damn Slow!
MySQL 5.1.30 x64
Windows XP x64 w/ latest updates.

-- Table Information --
InventoryKey = Primary Key
ContInvKey = Indexed
OwnerType + OwnerKey = Indexed

I am trying to do a SELECT WHERE IN and it's taking over 500 seconds to return results! This statement:

SELECT DISTINCT inventory.ContInvKey FROM inventory WHERE inventory.OwnerType = 1 AND inventory.OwnerKey = 18 AND inventory.ContInvKey > 0;

..takes 0.15 seconds to run and fetch 21 rows. However, if I do this statement:

SELECT * FROM inventory WHERE InventoryKey IN ( SELECT DISTINCT inventory.ContInvKey FROM inventory WHERE inventory.OwnerType = 1 AND inventory.OwnerKey = 18 AND inventory.ContInvKey > 0 );

.. it takes 500+ seconds to run and return 108 rows. Something is definitely wrong here. I can repeat it every time. I monitored the server ( I am the only connection ) and I see the server spike instantly when the query is received and then it flat lines. There doesn't appear to be any activity for 499.85 seconds. It's idle!

Slow Select Count(*)
I have a table with 75,000 rows.

An Explain tablename shows this

'TourPartsID', 'int(10) unsigned', 'NO', 'PRI', '', 'auto_increment'
'TourPartID', 'int(10) unsigned', 'NO', 'MUL', '', ''
'TourPartTypeID', 'int(10) unsigned', 'NO', 'MUL', '0', ''
'Language', 'int(10) unsigned', 'NO', '', '0', ''
'XML', 'mediumblob', 'NO', '', '', ''

When I do a Select count(*) from table, it takes about 12secs to return my number. This is occuring in the QueryBrowser and from the .NET library when it calls the Stored Procedure that does the Select count(*)....

My only quess that is my last column is a MEDBLOB but since I am NOT indexing that, I would figure MySQL ignores it.

Slow SELECT Query INNODB Table
I have a couple hundred connections doing "SELECT [Char36 Field], [LongLong Field], [Long Field] FROM [Connection Specific Table] WHERE [NonIndexed VarChar36 Field]=[Value]". Notice that the table the select statement is being called on is unique to each connection. These tables have less than 10000 records, but this statement can sometimes take over an hour to execute.

It is an INNODB table.

Slow Select Using Count(distinct) In A Table Bigger Than 100000 Records
Recently I started using MYSQL in my enterprise. I made a table which has around 100000 records. The problems is that it is really slow.. Im trying to do a query in which I get the number of distinct users per day.

This is my query:

select date(startedDate) as mydate, count(distinct(Users)) as users from Mytable
group by mydate

It is really simple and it does it correctly but it takes one minute.. One minute is not too much time but i need to insert around 10 000 000 records and thats what worries me.....

Slow MySQL
mySQL has been running very slowly and I am getting errors. First I did 2 things I raised the ServerLimit number (apache) to allow for more connections, I also raised the max conncetions in my.cnf. I do not know if this took effect? That should have worked. But basically in phpmyadmin i get this error frequently. I am getting more traffic so I think it is that.

MySQL said: Documentation
#2002 - The server is not responding (or the local MySQL server's socket is not correctly configured)

Why Does MySQL So Slow
I just changed to use MySQL few days ago but it was a bad idea. My server now is running very slowly with the database. I'm using Perl5 and DBD::Mysql in my script. The system is Linux9, Apache2.

I looked at these mysql pid and saw a lot of activities (about 400) while there are more 100 users online at this moment and lots of running under a the same pid number.

MySQL Slow
I had downloaded a few years back mySQL v3.51 installed but never used it. Now I wanted to convert some B-TREE databases to mySQL and did some testing via ODBC to insert 70,000 records: My results:

MS ACCESS: ~60,000 msecs
MYSQL v3.51 ~18,000 msecs

Impressed with the speed, I went ahead and got the latest MySQL v5.1. Uninstalled the older version, I had nothing there to preserve, so I did a simple new install with MySQL v5.1. I noticed the size of the files and BINEXE increasted by 1,000,000%. Ok, Bulky. Not a problem.

I reran the same ODBC test, and now I got:

MYSQL v5.1: ~450,000 msecs or 7.5 freaking MINUTES!

What the hell happen? Nothing was done. I'm knew to MYSQL. I just installed it with all the defaults. I did choose "developer's machine" for the "optimizer wizard"

I can't redistribute MYSQL v3.51 and force it down people's throats! I have to use what they are using already, if already installed. Not even my current system takes 1 minute to add 70,000 records. Why 7.5 minutes? All it is simple inserts/free statements.

MySQL Slow In Windows NT4
I am running the Apache web server, MySQL v4, and PHP on an NT4 server.
Apache runs great, but the auction software I am using (Web2035 Auction
software written in PHP) is very, very slow.

Sometimes it takes 20-30 seconds to bring up an auction page from the items
table which has less than 200 records in it.

Can anyone can give me some pointers on where to start looking? (I don't
know if the bottleneck is with MySQL or PHP or what I might need to look at
to enhance the performance of either package.)

MySQL Slow Starting Up
I am using a Windows 2003 Web Edition Server running IIS and MySQL 4.1. I had to restart the server the other day and it took MySQL almost 2 hours to come back up. I was watching it on my task manager and it went up to approximately 60,000k in 10k increments before I was able to access MySQL.

My CPU usage was hovering around 3% all this time. Everything else came up on the server just fine. This happens every time I have to restart my server. The reason I have to restart my server most of the time, is because MySQL locks up on me.

Is there any settings I can change that would help me here? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

One more thing to add. I am using the default my.ini file. We have almost 100 different databases on the server and have around 20000 tables within all of these databases combined. All of these tables are InnoDB tables.

MySQL Is Slow, Trying To Optimize
It just seems that my system is slow, adding records, etc. I tried to optimize it, saw that there was a my-medium.ini file, read that is was for medium sized system. I replaced it with my.ini (yes I did make a backup, thankfully) and restarted mysql.

Pretty much it hangs. I tried to connect with QueryBrower, did a Select Count(*) and just froze. I admit that I didn't wait for ever, yes I know I Select Count(*) takes a long time but I gave up after waiting 3x as long as I normal did. Also the logs screen froze in administrator.

Slow Running MySQL?
I'm hoping someone may have an idea what could be causing the slow loading pages of my web-site. I'm not positive, but I'm relatively sure that it's related to a problem with MySQL database.

I purchased a program called Sam3 for broadcasting our radio signal over the internet. The software requires the use of MySql in order to set up web pages for our web site.

The problem is, that while everything works GREAT (requests can be made from the site, songs can be searched, the history of what we've played shows up) the pages load PAINFULLY slow. Other users of this software have had no such problems so I'm at a loss.

I know from testing that the PHP script for the web pages is fine, I have plenty of bandwith both upload and download available on my DSL line, and while the computer running MySQL is behind a router I have tried plugging the DSL line DIRECTLY into the host computer and it makes no difference.

For all appearances it seems the problem is that it takes MySQL forever to gather and provide the information needed for these pages. Does anyone have any idea what I should be looking at to solve this problem?

I do not know the MySQL program at all, so I get somewhat lost when people start throwing out technical terms, but this has been really frustrating because no one else seems to have the problem and everyone so far has just told me to check the things I've already checked.

MySQL Connection Sometimes Slow
I have been developing an application in Visual Basic that accesses a MySQL database either on the local machine, or a remote machine. Locally, database connections run smoothly. However, when I try to connect to the remote system (another computer on my local network) some databases take longer to connect than others (sometimes 10 - 20 seconds).

The application usses the myvbql.dll (sorry lost the link, found it through google) wrapper around the libmysql.dll file to perform database actions. The application seems to hang when it tries to actually make the connection to the datatbase. This is only happening on the remote database server, and does not happen on every connection to that server.

Slow Remote MySql
We have a local (client) machine that runs a php application on windows using apache, the database for this application is on a remote server, which the client machine connects to via the servers ip number and the server accepts the connection from the client via the designated ip address (skip-resolve-address is set in MySql server and no dns addresses are used, only ip).

However, the php application when dealing with the data from the MySql server is still pretty slow. We've tried query cache, but still slow.

When I say slow, I mean page response and reloads take about 5 or 6 seconds. Is this expected from a remote server and using apache as we do for this application? When using a local MySql server the speed is pretty much instantaneous, but we need the remote server!

Also, in testing the remote MySql server with a program such as SQLyog, response to requests are very quick and queries take no time.

How could we go about testing for where the bottleneck is? Could it be apache and php (and where do we start looking for the problem? Local MySql server is nice and fast)?

MySQL ODBC 3.51 Driver Very Slow!
I am using the MySQL ODBC 3.51 driver to link three relatively small MySQL
tables to a Microsoft Access 2003 database. I am finding that the data from
the MySQL tables takes a hell of a long time to load making any kind linkage

I have the MySQL driver setup in as a USER DSN. The MySQL data is sitting
out on a server and the Access database is running locally.

MySQL Slow: Configuration To Blame/fix?
I have MySQL 5 running on a PC, and have grown used to the startling slowness of MySQL joins. The most recent disappointment is a straightforward self-join of a not-too-big (700K rows), indexed (on very-high-cardinality column FILE) table

create table temp2 as
select a.*, b.time as time2,
from temp1 a left join temp1 b
on a.file = b.file
and timestampdiff(HOUR,a.time,b.time) = 1;

that completed in 10 hours. (Indexing resulting table took 20 minutes). If this is not a problem with the programmer, or with MySQL, could it be a result of a mismanaged installation, one that could be fixed with a judicious re-configuration/choice of MySQL options?

Delay, Latency, Slow Mysql
I recently upgraded mysql from 3.23 to 4.0 and found that my websites using the mysql db had a 5 second delay, or latency. I searched for 2 days and found no answer to my latency problem until just a moment ago. I'd like to share the answer in case someone else finds this occurring to them as well.

I was using my real static ip in my website mysql address instead of 'localhost', localhost should have been used initially anyways. I am not real sure what my reasoning was when I initially chose to put in my static IP.

So, If you are like me and keep your stuff on your local machine, use 'localhost' instead of your static IP. At least it fixed my delay issues.

Mysql -s -u Root Bmd < Db.dump2 Slow
I've been sent a dump of a database and am trying to restore it with the

problem is that the database is 40GB.

Now if mysql is doing database-y thing like allowing access while building

round the problem and slurp the the whole thing in isolation.

Remote MySQL Connection Slow
I have a website on a dedicated server that was running really slow, so I got another, much faster server and transferred the MySQL database to this server. However, now when I connect to the faster server's database using the slower server's PHP web pages, the overall page loads much slower than when the database was on the slower server.

Any ideas why this would be? Right now the host name is just an IP address. Does it need an actual resolved hostname to be fast? MySQL on the faster server is supposedly tweaked for fast service (my-huge.cnf).

Slow Performance After Falling Back To MySQL 3
Yesterday I have upgraded my linux box with a pair of Xeon 1G CPU and
reinstalled everything (it was a sinle Xeon 700). The default RH9
installation comes with MySQL 3.23.54. After the reinstallation I
found the machine was not as responsive as before. (It's not very
slow, but some lagging is noticed)

I was running Mysql-max 4.0.11 and the performance was ok, except the
slowness during the peak hours, which was regarded as normal. I would
like to know the differences between Mysql 3 and 4. Is the new version
making a significant jump in performance?

I also noticed the system eats up memory faster than before. With the
old setting the system never used up 60% of physical memory, even at
extremely high loading (30+). Now it easily used up 70% of memory.

MySQL Slow To Connect To Remote Database
I was running a PHP/MySQL web site with the database on the local web server. I needed to move the database off the webserver (located in the firewall DMZ) and onto its own machine (behind the firewall on our private network)

webserver:/# mysql -h 192.168.1.7 -u www-data -p

After I enter the password, it takes around 5-7s before I see the mysql> prompt.

MySQL Timing Out? Really Slow Queries, Already Indexed.
For whatever reason, MySQL does not seem to be executing. So, I ran a few stat functions and here is what I got:

Uptime: 220372
Threads: 39
Questions: 18748899
Slow queries: 808
Opens: 28723
Flush tables: 1
Open tables: 4096
Queries per second avg: 85.078

The "open tables" worries me for a few reasons. First, because it is 4kb (exactly, since it is divisible by 1024, evenly). This makes me think that maybe I am hitting a ceiling.

Second, there are a few variables in MySQL that equal this, and maybe it's a cap on something. Here are the variables that equal 4096:
query_cache_min_res_unit = 4096
table_cache = 4096
transaction_prealloc_size = 4096

Do any of those have anything to do with this? Am I even close? Are any of those values from mysql_stat a big deal?

User Admin In Mysql-administrator Slow On Linux
We have a MySQL 5.0.16 server installed on a RedHat 8.0 machine.
mysql-administrator v1.0.22 is installed on RH Linux FC3 from the

Everything seems to run fine except User Administration is *extremely*
slow. If I click on "User Administration" in the sidebar, it takes
about 2 minutes (seems like forever) before the window comes back with
the infomation. All the other functions seem to function fine.

Is it because I'm using mysql-administrator on a remote host? Do I need
to move and rebuild the server to a newer Linux version? mysqlcc
doesn't have this problem at all. (It's using the libraries from MySQL
4.1 that the databases were migrated to.)

Too Slow Queries
I am using version 5.0.4. I noticed that suddenly my queries were becoming too slow. I have data in three tables, with 40,000 rows, 50,000 rows and 70,000 rows respectively. I was able to run queries that joined the three tables together and get the results in less than 5 seconds. I tried updating the tables through a program that used a stored procedure to delete the tables but I had some other problems. Since the I restored the data in the tables from backup databases. Now I can't run any queries that join the three tables together, it waits for a long time and then times out. The data in the tables look good. Now I can't get the results from any of the other backup databases either. It look like the entire MySQL server has slowed down greatly. I tried rebooting the server to no avail.

Slow Performance
On my index.php page, I have a simple query that checks the session_id against a table where I store other session_id'. If it's not there, it records it (unique hit). If it's there, it doesn't record it (not a unique hit.) This usually goes off without a hitch, and every month or so I empty the table.

Right now I only have about 2500 rows, and it's taking forever to load the page. Is there something possibly server related that could be causing this? My host charges an arm and a leg just to see if there's something wrong if I bring up an issue, so I'd like some insight as to whether there's a commonly known server-side issue that can bog down performance.
