[Maria-discuss] Potential participation in Google Summer of Code 2014
by Colin Charles 15 Feb '14

15 Feb '14

Hi! We have applied to be part of the Google Summer of Code 2014 project, and hope to gain some new contributors. If you are on this list and think you can be a mentor for a project, please consider writing a note at: https://mariadb.com/kb/en/google-summer-of-code-2014/ I think the aim for the GSoC students code should be for 10.1 inclusion If you have any queries, don't hesitate to ask me about them, I'm happy to help. Typically mentors need about 4 hours or so per week to assist the student in seeing their project become a reality I encourage many to participate as its a rewarding experience. In 2013, we did participate, and got 3 features out of it: SQL ROLES, PCRE regular expressions, and a Kerberos authentication plugin Looking forward to seeing more happen in 2014! (here's hoping we get accepted into GSoC 2014 of course!) cheers, -colin -- Colin Charles, Chief Evangelist MariaDB | t: +6-012-204-3201 | Skype: colincharles

[Maria-discuss] Very slow insert with load data infile
by Pierre 12 Feb '14

12 Feb '14

Hello, Mariadb is getting slower and slower when I'm inserting a massive amout of data. I'm trying to insert 166 507 066 rows (12go) using load data infile '' into an empty table. I splitted my file in 13 parts of the same size because it was too long to insert in one shot. When I inserted more than 100M rows, it starts to be extremely slow. Here are the time for each load data infile : LOAD DATA INFILE '/tmp/hash/xaa' : 2min 49sec LOAD DATA INFILE '/tmp/hash/xab' : 2min 49sec LOAD DATA INFILE '/tmp/hash/xac' : 3min 48sec LOAD DATA INFILE '/tmp/hash/xad' : 3min 48sec LOAD DATA INFILE '/tmp/hash/xae' : 3min 49sec LOAD DATA INFILE '/tmp/hash/xaf' : 5min 59sec LOAD DATA INFILE '/tmp/hash/xag' : 10min 50sec LOAD DATA INFILE '/tmp/hash/xah' : 20min 7sec LOAD DATA INFILE '/tmp/hash/xai' : 47min 7sec LOAD DATA INFILE '/tmp/hash/xaj' : 4 hours 1 min 9.34 sec ( ouch !) LOAD DATA INFILE '/tmp/hash/xak' : still running... Now the task is running but mariadb is only using 2% cpu and read to the disk at 2500 Kb/sec (which is slow regarding the disk performance). There is a lot of disk space. If insertion speed continue to slow down at this rate, it will take weeks to insert the 3 remainings files ! It's only 166M rows so I think it's not normal. If I disable the "unique" constraint insertion speed is great but I need to be sure there is no duplicate and I also need an index. Can someone explain me what is happening internaly and why it is so slow ? Do you think if I just create an index (not a unique index) it will be faster ? The problem is I specially delegated this task of unique checking to mysql. If no solution, do you know a database or a key/value store with better for performance for this use case ? (create an index and remove duplicate ?) I can rearrange my table structure (at a cost of more disk space usage) to match a key/value structure. Here is my current table structure : CREATE TABLE `wallets` ( `p1` varbinary(20) DEFAULT NULL, `p2` varbinary(20) DEFAULT NULL, `data` varbinary(32) DEFAULT NULL, UNIQUE KEY `p1` (`p1`), UNIQUE KEY `p2` (`p2`) ) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8 ROW_FORMAT=FIXED; Computer specs: 16go RAM and 4x3.1 ghz, 2x1To (with 90% unused disk space) The configuration variables (I tweaked specially for this insertion job) : key_buffer_size = 6G # MyISAM: used with insert to an empty table bulk_insert_buffer_size = 6G # MyISAM/Aria: insert to a non empty table; default 8M myisam_sort_buffer_size = 6G # MyISAM: used for sort but only when : "CREATE INDEX", "ALTER TABLE" or "REPAIR TABLE" read_buffer_size = 6G # MyISAM/Aria/MERGE: allocated for each table scan, for order by, nested query caching, bulk insert into partitions sort_buffer_size = 4M # ALL: allocated each time a session need to do a sort myisam_max_sort_file_size = 128G # MyISAM: tmp file max size I'm using mariadb 5.5.31.
