[Maria-developers] [GSoC] MDEV-371- index on BLOB
by smit hinsu 21 Mar '14

21 Mar '14

Hi Sergei and Roberto, My name is Smit Hinsu and I am final year undergrad student. I have good knowledge about database internals and good experience with C++. I find feature of creating index on BLOB quickly using MD-5 interesting. I have understood basic requirements for this feature. I have following questions in my mind currently. I think, HASH index is not supported in MySQL's version of MyISAM storage engine. Has MariaDB removed this restriction? We should support index for BLOB for BTREE index also in which we store only hash value of the value in BTREE. Is this possible? Can you suggest me some startup task related to index or storage engine which can make me familiar with the related parts? I have started to look at code. From Smit Hinsu

[Maria-developers] Engine independent index statistics - infrastructure questions
by Sergey Petrunia 20 Mar '14

20 Mar '14

Hello Igor and others, I've been playing around with engine independent statistics, and got a few questions. == mysqldump == mysqldump dumps table' data, but besides that it can dump other related objects, e.g. it will dump triggers that are attached to the table. Should it dump table statistics values, also? This question is of interest for DBAs, but also for optimizer developers. If a user has a complaint about the optimizer, we frequently ask them to upload a dataset. How do we request table/column statistics? We can't request output of SELECT * ..., because histogram data is binary and will be corrupted. We should provide users a convinent way to pass us relevant part of the EITS tables. == dropping table statistics == How does one drop table statistics? are we satisfied with needing to run three statements DELETE FROM mysql.column_stats WHERE schema_name=$db AND table_name=$table_name; DELETE FROM mysql.index_stats WHERE table_name=$db AND table_name=$table_name; DELETE FROM mysql.column_stats WHERE table_name=$db AND table_name=$table_name; or we want a simpler SQL, like DROP STATISTICS FOR t1; == Permissions on statistic tables == What should be the permissions on statistics tables? I guess we should follow pattern from other system tables - a user is typically able to read the table but not write to it (so that he can't mess with other users' SPs/triggers/etc). However, if the user is not allowed to modify the table directly, we should provide enough ways to modify the table indirectly. For example, we should provide a way to drop statistics for one's tables (which brings us back to the previous item). We might also want to allow to make other modifications to statistics of tables that one has control of?

Hello, I would like to take part into one of your projects on base of GSoC 2014. I am an experienced C/C++ programmer with wide knowledge of algorithms and data structures and huge interest into this sphere. I have some basic knowledge of SQL language, but unfortunatelly I don't have any database development experience. Nevertheless, gaining the latter is my essential purpose. Can I count on a chance of taking part in one of your projects? Sorry for writing to you that late. P.S. I tried writing to you a bit earlier, but the mail wouldn't appear on mailing list. -- Best regards, Ivan Nikulin

The correct way would be to use I_P_List<> with the I_P_List_fast_push_back policy, then you could use have get_last() method to get the last element in the list.

[Maria-developers] [GSOC 2014] GIS Enhancement
by bang honam 19 Mar '14

19 Mar '14

Hi everybody. I am Honam Bang, a researcher of Korean Institute of Science Technology and I will be a master student of UCSD, USA from this Sep. I have been working with GIS research for about one year. Therefore, I decided to work on the 'GIS Enhancement topic' because I have a lot of interest for dealing with geospatial data. My topic is 'implementing shp to sql command tool for MariaDB'. #MDEV-5813. Most shptosql tools are enable to convert 3D coordinates as I know. The shape file white paper( http://www.esri.com/library/whitepapers/pdfs/shapefile.pdf) specifies a lot of 3D coordinates like POINT Z, MULTIPOINTZ which does not exist in MariaDB's Geometry type. Does my topic include implementing those type converting as well? Thank you Honam Bang

[Maria-developers] first results from replication benchmarks
by Axel Schwenke 18 Mar '14

18 Mar '14

Hi everybody, here are some first results from my benchmarks of replication / group commit performance. The benchmark is sysbench OLTP rw, data set fitting in memory. I tested a total of 27 configurations, 9 each for Maria-5.5.36, Maria-10.0.9 and MySQL-5.6.16. Variations were for binlog on/off, SBR vs. RBR and sync_binlog=0/1. For MariaDB I also tested XtraDB vs. InnoDB, for MySQL it was GTID on vs. GTID off. Not surprisingly turning on the binlog comes with a performance penalty. Also sync_binlog=1 adds another penalty. Quite consistently RBR was a little bit slower than SBR for all combinations (I also observed the binlogs to be bigger for RBR by a factor of nearly 2). The only real surprise was the cost of GTID in MySQL as can be seen in the attached plot. MariaDB-10.0 has GTID enabled by default (you cannot even turn it off) Right now the same benchmark is running again, this time using a single disk for binlogs (was a fast RAID before). Next step is applying binlogs to a slave with different settings for number of slave threads etc. XL

[Maria-developers] Group commit id in mysqlbinlog output
by Kristian Nielsen 18 Mar '14

18 Mar '14

There was a question on the output of mysqlbinlog related to group commit. In 10.0, if two transactions group commit together on the master, their GTID event contains a "commit id" - a 64-bit number. This is used by parallel replication; if two transactions have the same commit id, they can be executed in parallel. In mysqlbinlog output, this looks like this: #140314 13:42:56 server id 1 end_log_pos 772 GTID 0-1-12 cid=180 ... #140314 13:42:56 server id 1 end_log_pos 1027 GTID 0-1-13 cid=180 But if a transaction commits alone on the master (no other transactions participate in the group commit), the mysqlbinlog outpus has no commit id: #140314 13:42:56 server id 1 end_log_pos 437 GTID 0-1-10 The question was why there is no cid=X in the second case, as it makes scripting/grepping the output harder. The reason is that there is no commit id in the event in the binlog in this case (to reduce the size of the binlog). So there is no valid number to put in there. One option could be to make the output something like this: #140314 13:42:56 server id 1 end_log_pos 437 GTID 0-1-10 cid=<none> This would allow to grep for "cid=" and catch everything. I do not have a strong opinion one way or the other, if there are people who find this useful, then let me know and I can change it. - Kristian.
