[Maria-developers] innodb-buffer-pool-instances confusion
by Daniel Bartholomew 07 Aug '14

07 Aug '14

I was chatting with some folks on IRC and someone pointed this out to me. On the "Upgrading From MariaDB 5.5 to MariaDB 10.0" page, it says that the new default value for innodb-buffer-pool-instances is '0': https://mariadb.com/kb/en/upgrading-from-mariadb-55-to-mariadb-100/ And when I run the following, it says the default is indeed '0': mysqld --no-defaults --verbose --help | grep innodb-buffer-pool-instances ... innodb-buffer-pool-instances 0 But when I'm in the client, I get the following: MariaDB [(none)]> select @@innodb_buffer_pool_instances; +--------------------------------+ | @@innodb_buffer_pool_instances | +--------------------------------+ | 8 | +--------------------------------+ So when innodb-buffer-pool-instances is set to '0', does that mean the actual value is dynamic or calculated in some way based on my other settings? Just trying to understand what's going on, and once I do, use it to update the XtraDB/InnoDB buffer-pool page (which doesn't appear to have been updated for 10.0). https://mariadb.com/kb/en/xtradbinnodb-buffer-pool/ Thanks! -- Daniel Bartholomew, MariaDB Release Manager MariaDB | http://mariadb.com

[Maria-developers] CONNECT system variables
by Ian Gilfillan 07 Aug '14

07 Aug '14

Hi I am trying to document the CONNECT system variables at https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb/documentation/storage-engines/connect/con… but I can't seem to find much documentation in the code. I managed to put something together from Olivier's notes in JIRA for some of them, but can anyone help fill in the gaps and send me details on the other variables? thanks, ian

[Maria-developers] a question about group commit
by nanyi607rao 07 Aug '14

07 Aug '14

Hi, as we know there are 3 steps in XA transaction committing 1, prepare step 2, write binary log 3, commit step in engines all these steps need a fsync(). Group commit strategy can make a group of transactions durable with one fsync() at step 2 and step 3, which can lead to dramatic performance enchance. But in step 1, each transaction still do its own fsync(). so why not make several transactions durable whith one fsync() in prepare step just like step 2 and 3, which I think can improve performanc further more ? Thanks 2014-08-04 nanyi607rao

by Anshu Avinash 04 Aug '14

04 Aug '14

Hi all, I have been accepted for the project "Self-Tuning Optimizer". I will be doing this project under the mentorship of Sergei Golubchik. There is already a task created which will track the progress for this project: https://mariadb.atlassian.net/browse/MDEV-350 . I'll start with getting familiar with the code base, reading some literature on cost estimation in optimizer and interacting with community. About me: I am currently a 4th year student pursuing B.Tech - M.Tech dual degree in Computer Science and Engineering from Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) – Kanpur, India. This would be my first GSoC project. I had done an internship at Facebook last year. I'll also be maintaining a blog at http://igniting.in . I'm really excited to be a part of mariadb and I hope to make a significant contribution to it. Regards Anshu Avinash
