Managing Large Tables
I recently inherited a database (version 5.0.18) that has 1 table constantly growing out of hand between 10GB -30GB, therefore making is difficult/impossible to query. Also, the Archive Storage Engine is not installed. Currently, the table is manually renamed (i.e. tablename_daterange) and a new table created. ....

Managing A Large Piece Of Data
I have a table set up for all of my pages of content. There are columns that store certain small, various information about the page. Then, there is the main content column that holds the page content (actual article). One of my staff members that writes content for my site is complaining that the content gets cut off. I imagine it's because it's bigger than 65,000 bytes, which is all that the "TEXT" type of field will allow (that's what type of field my main content is... TEXT) My question is what type of field should I change my main content column to an order to fit a larger piece of data? I've never had to this before, so I don't really know anything other than TEXT. Sixty-five thousand bytes isn't cutting it though.

Managing A Very Big Number Of Tables
I have to manage 2^19 (approximately 524 000) tables, should I divide them into several databases to make it easy for my operating system (ext3 file system) and for my MYSQL server ? And what storage engine is the best in my case ? The second question : with the "min_rows" option can I avoid fragmented tables on my hard disk in my case ?

Very Large Tables
I am looking at using mysql to store some particle physics data. So the idea is (for example) I would have a table with a list of events, then a table with a list of particle types (one event can have many particles) and so on. The problem is that quite often I want to calculate something for every single event, but this table might run into 10s of millions of events and many GB. Obviously it would be mad to load the whole result set into memory then iterate over it. My question is: is there any way to have the db push results to the users one (or a few) at a time in an effiecent way? I was thinking of something like an iterator that pulls the data from the disk one (or few) at a time. An alternative (but much less useful) method might be to hand the function I want to calculate to mysql, for example: select myfunc(x,y,z,a,b,c) from events where energy>3; But as far as I know there is no way of defining your own functions in SQL

Large Table Or Many Tables?
I posted a similar question about 6~12 months ago with no definate answer, so I will give it another go, as the choice has popped up again in my programming life: If the number of entries is the same is it more efficient (better) to have a single table with many columns, or many tables with few columns? The obvious answer is a single table, because there is less closing and opening tables, but the reason why I ask is what about searching through a lot of columns being even more inefficient? The situation is I need to record data for every week of the year. Say ~50 columns per week --> 2600 columns. Or, do I split it so it's 52 tables with 50 columns each? In each of these options the user (or user ID) will be the primary key. The seemingly pointless other option is to insert new columns with every new user, and have the week-item as the primary key?

Large Number Of Tables
I would like to ask whether it is feasible (or whether it makes sense) to run a PHP script that creates a number of tables for each user. Basically, this script allows users to sign up for a free service, and for each user that signs up, the script creates 9 tables in the database to contain that user's details. Is this a sensible way of containing user data, and what are the inherent problems this may cause especially when say are 1000 users signup?

Managing To Kill MySQL
I am new to MySQL, but not to databases. I am building a somewhat large database (7.5 GB >150M rows). I am loading the database through a Java program that I wrote using JDBC. If I load the database serially, I do not have a problem. Of course this takes forever, so I have been experimenting with running multiple loading scripts in parallel. I have managed to freeze up MySQL many times. When I say freeze, I get a connection timeout from the script and cannot log in via any sort of client. I have to restart MySQL to get it to respond again. I am using a MyISAM table. I have run this against two different versions of MySQL with the same results. The versions are 4.1.9 standard (x86_64) and Ver 11.18 Distrib 3.23.58, for redhat-linux-gnu (x86_64).

Slow Join On Large Tables
I have two tables: D (500,000 recs), and DL (2,500,000 recs) D has a PK and an index on HLQ. DL has a PK and an index on ID.

Large Tables, Very Slow Deletes.
I've been using MySQL for a while now and are starting to run into limitations. Either my own, or something else. I have this really large table, it stores images, it has a mediumblob field, an unsigned id integer field and a timestamp field. This table contains up to a few million rows and is constantly filled real time. It grows up to sizes between 50 and 100 gb and in the future probably even larger. This data is not supposed to be stored for all time, therefor when a certain treshhold is reached, the oldest 5000 rows are deleted to make room for newer rows. This is where my problem kicks in. Whenever I try to delete those rows, it can take for ever to complete. 500 rows I can delete without problem, 2500 becomes slow, 5000 rows takes several seconds and 10.000 rows or more makes it looks like things are frozen. Now the temporary solution I have is to delete 500 rows at time, but this means I must do that every 10 seconds just to maintain status quo. I would much rather check every 5 minutes or so, and if needed delete 15.000 rows in one go. I use MyISAM tables and tried setting the key size to 128M, no luck. I run this on a dual Opteron system with a GB of memory and WinXP-SP2 Proffesional.

Large Unused Tables Vs Performance
I've been working on a website with a rather large a database. One of the about 100 tables in there was about 1/4 of the total database size. The table had no use anymore at the time I worked the website, so it was just sitting there, doing absolutely nothing. Obviously to spare diskspace we deleted the table. But the question I have now, can unused large tables affect the perfomance of Mysql? I've searched a bit around, but honestly I couldn't find a clear answer about it right away (maybe I haven't searched enough either :) )

One Large Table Vs. Many Small Tables
I'm working on a design using PHP & MySQL and I'd like to get some opinions on this. My design has several tables that will be referenced but I'm wondering if those tables should be broken down even more and referenced more dynamically. The reason that I wonder about this is for long term goals. I hope that eventually there will be two or three thousand records that will be used on a regular basis. These records will need to be separated into groups, but I'm not sure if I should use a field in the database table or create a new table for each group. If a few hundred records could be in each group, do you think it's better to use one large table with a field for the group ID, or a new table for each group?

Speeding Up Large MySQL MyISAM Tables
I'm somewhat new to MySql. I've been using it for a while, but pretty much out of the box setup, and am starting to suffer heavily with my larger tables. I have a table with 5,000,000+ rows that I have to search and do joins on. Although I have an index set up for it, the joined select will still take some 400+ seconds to return, which is obviously unacceptable. This is due to enormous HD access. Perhaps someone can help me with indexes here; I was under the impression that the index for the tables are cached in memory, and therefore permitted "instant" searchability, without having to retrieve data from each of the rows of the DB. Is there a startup parameter, or something in the mysql.ini file, that must be set to allow for this? I have the index configured properly, and have made sure that the query uses there parameters in the where clause in the same order that they appear in the index. Code:

Selecting From Multiple Large Tables Quickly
My skills with MySQL typically end at "SELECT * FROM table WHERE stuff", so I've had a lot of trouble with optimizing this query. I've tried doing multiple select statements for this, but that usually comes out with an average execution time of 99s. This method has a execution time of 6s still, so I'd like to get it down. I have 4 important tables here (I'm only posting the columns which I use): `auth` UID mediumint(8) unsigned PRI NULL auto_increment username varchar(32) MUL clan_id mediumint(8) unsigned MUL 0 clan_abbrev varchar(7) MUL `clans` ID mediumint(8) unsigned PRI NULL auto_increment Abbrev varchar(7) MUL Name varchar(64) icon_id smallint(5) unsigned 0 `stats` UID int(10) unsigned PRI 0 kills mediumint(9) NULL `usernames` UID int(10) unsigned 0 ID int(10) unsigned PRI NULL auto_increment Name varchar(32) Uses mediumint(9) 0 `auth`, `stats`, and `usernames` are linked by `UID`. `clans` is linked to a row in `auth` based on it's `clan_id`. I need to search the `usernames` table for a `Name` which matches a certain text (I use "storm" in my example below). I need to return a result with matches to that search, with each row containing:The `UID` which links the tables together for that user.The matching `Name` from `usernames`The matching `username` from `auth`The `Uses` from `usernames`.The `clan_id` from `auth`.The `Abbrev` from `clans`.The `Name` from `clans`.The `icon_id` from `clans`.The `kills` from `stats`. The result should be ordered by `Uses` (from `usernames`) -- highest to lowest. The tricky part is that some users may have Ɔ' as their `clan_id` in the `auth` table, in which case the clan id, abbrev, name, and icon_id should all be blank (0 or '' based on the type). Here's what I managed to hammer out with my limited knowledge of SQL: ( SELECT usernames.UID AS `UID` , usernames.Name AS `result` , auth.username AS `playername` , usernames.Uses AS `Uses` , auth.clan_id AS `clan_id` , clans.Abbrev AS `clan_abbrev` , clans.Name AS `clan_name` , clans.icon_id AS `clan_icon` , stats.kills AS `kills` FROM `usernames` , `auth` , `clans` , `stats` WHERE usernames.Name LIKE '%storm%' AND auth.UID = usernames.UID AND clans.ID = auth.clan_id AND stats.UID = auth.UID ) UNION ( SELECT usernames.UID AS `UID` , usernames.Name AS `result` , auth.username AS `playername` , usernames.Uses AS `Uses` , 0 AS `clan_id` , '' AS `clan_abbrev` , '' AS `clan_name` , 0 AS `clan_icon` , stats.kills AS `kills` FROM `usernames` , `auth` , `stats` WHERE usernames.Name LIKE '%storm%' AND auth.UID = usernames.UID AND auth.clan_id =0 AND stats.UID = auth.UID ) ORDER BY `Uses` DESC It works great, but the average query takes around 6s (these tables have several thousand entries in each).

VERY Large Database
I have such question - how I should split large data for the better performance? Its seems to be old question, but can't find it in search Lets say if I have 10000 items, each have 10000 records - at the start and much more later. Main operations - INSERT/SELECT (search for the records on some item by key) DELETE/UPDATE almost will not be used (because of the implementation) I see few possible options 1. Create 100 databases, in each 100 tables, in each 10000 records (records for the 1 item). 2. Create 1 large table with internal index. As I understand, main difference between 1 and 2, that in case 2 main load will be drived to the mysql and index, in case 1 main load will be drived to the FAT (or whatever else used at the server). But before mysql will use index large file (or its index) will need to be loaded, so in case 2 FAT will be loaded too. IMHO option 1 is better from performance side.

MySQL With Large Table.
I am using MySQL for a table which will have 100M+ records, avg length of records being 130 bytes. When the number of records reach approx. 25M (and the file size close to 4GB), the rate of inserts falls drastically from 800 per second to 30-40 per second. Details: * MySQL 3.23.58 on Fedora Core 3 * Table has 4 indices. * I have got rid of 4GB file size problem with MAX_ROWS=1000000000. * File system : ext3 on single disk. ext3 could create 10G file without much trouble. So I am convinced that ext3 is not the bottleneck. * Tried using InnoDB engine but it also doesn't meet the requirements. Requirements of database: * A single table in the database with 100M+ rows, each of size 130 bytes (approx). * 500-600 inserts per second. * 200 selects and 200 updates per second. (These statements will affect only one row) * 3-5 select statements per minute which can return 10k to 500k records. * No foreign keys/ACID transaction requirements. * Fast recovery in case of crash. Questions: * Does MySQL performance drops when the table grows beyond 4G? * Which are most important server variables which need to fine tuned? Currently I am using only key_buffer = 512M.

Migrating Large Db From One Server To Another
I am having huge problems migrating large db’s from one server to another. I use phpmyadmin to dump the data into a file, and then migrate it to my production server. Then I try to use this: mysql dbname < filename but if the tables are too large, it simply does not work. So I tried the following two work-arounds, which work but are tedious. Is there a nicer way to do it: Solution A: Create a dump file with subset of all the tables, to reduce size Solution B: Take a zip of the table structure directly, and then copy that. Problem here is that all the tables have to be individually "repaired" so that mysql is in synch with its new data.

Breaking Up A Large Table
I'm working with a web-based project management app that stores task information for multiple users in a common 'tasks' table. The table has over 500K rows at this point and is accessed by around 1000 users. The queries are optimized and the table is indexed properly (I think) but as the db grows performance is starting to lag. I'm thinking that the quick fix would be to break up the tasks table into smaller ones by user. So ... is that a good idea? All of a sudden I'm going to have 1000 more tables. Also the app code will be adding tables on the fly as new users come on board. (The existing tables are all of type MyISAM)

Large Number Of Queries
Ive currently got a loop on a php page which takes ~7000 rows from an sql table, parses information from it and does inserts/updates/deletes depending on the information. At the moment, it does a new mysql_query for each of the inserts/updates/deletes so it ends up doing ~10k queries each time its run. Im wondering if its better to use an array to store the queries and then put them all together (";" seperated) and run all the queries at once in the same mysql_query. One thing to bear in mind is some of the data involved in the queries relies on previous data from queries in the loop, would this cause any problems with the combined query
