Hi, mysqltuner does only take some buffers to calculate the maximum buffer size, for example it does not take in account the Aria table cache or the TokuDB table cache (if you have TokuDB enabled) or other MariaDB specific buffers it more to give you an idea of the possible memory usage than a real value. ps: you could be having a problem with your Maria but without more informations its hard to know if something is not right.

Hi,
Running a mysqltuner.pl scan tells the following: [--] Up for: 6d 15h 31m 3s (139M q [242.402 qps], 2M conn, TX: 427B, RX: 16B) [--] Reads / Writes: 95% / 5% [--] Total buffers: 2.0G global + 2.3M per thread (175 max threads) [OK] Maximum possible memory usage: 2.4G (31% of installed RAM)
However , it seems to be using more than what mysqltuner reports (3.3G now):

Is this some memory leak problem , problems with the script or normal behavior ?
Thank you in advance, Alexandru
