I am having a huge CPU and memory usage from mysql in my server.
My configuration is the following :
- Intel Xeon E5-2640 v4 @ 2.40GHz (4 Core)
- 8GB RAM DDR4 ECC
- 120GB SSD RAID-10
- Unmetered Traffic / 100Mbit
I've tried optimizing some requests and lowering the frequency of some cron jobs, but still the server slow downs from time to time. Here is my my.cnf code :
[mysqld]
performance-schema=0
#
# Remove leading # and set to the amount of RAM for the most important data
# cache in MySQL. Start at 70% of total RAM for dedicated server, else 10%.
innodb_buffer_pool_size = 128M
#
# Remove leading # to turn on a very important data integrity option: logging
# changes to the binary log between backups.
# log_bin
#
# Remove leading # to set options mainly useful for reporting servers.
# The server defaults are faster for transactions and fast SELECTs.
# Adjust sizes as needed, experiment to find the optimal values.

-------- Recommendations ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
General recommendations:
Control warning line(s) into /var/log/mysqld.log file
Control error line(s) into /var/log/mysqld.log file
MySQL was started within the last 24 hours - recommendations may be inaccurate
Reduce your overall MySQL memory footprint for system stability
Dedicate this server to your database for highest performance.
Adjust your join queries to always utilize indexes
Temporary table size is already large - reduce result set size
Reduce your SELECT DISTINCT queries without LIMIT clauses
Increase table_open_cache gradually to avoid file descriptor limits
Read this before increasing table_open_cache over 64:
Read this before increasing for MariaDB
This is MyISAM only table_cache scalability problem, InnoDB not affected.
This bug already fixed in MySQL 5.7.9 and newer MySQL versions.
Beware that open_files_limit (20000) variable
should be greater than table_open_cache (2000)
Variables to adjust:
*** MySQL's maximum memory usage is dangerously high ***
*** Add RAM before increasing MySQL buffer variables ***
join_buffer_size (> 1.0G, or always use indexes with JOINs)
table_open_cache (> 2000)
Anyone to help me about the optimization I can do to my.cnf file or any other tweaks to lower memory and CPU consumption.
Thanks.
