Hello community,
I have mysql installed on FreeBSD 7.0 i386. I am using mysqltuner.pl from
ports
to check for tuning parameters. Now my problem, sort of speak, is that
mysqltuner.pl
shows the following:
[OK] Maximum possible memory usage: 1.6G (53% of installed RAM)
So as far as i understand mysql is limited to using max 1.6G of RAM. But
top
shows different things
PID USERNAME THR PRI NICE SIZE RES STATE C TIME WCPU COMMAND
68083 mysql 18 44 0 2901M 1927M ucond 3 608:36
1.07% mysqld
Why is mysql using more memory than showed in mysqltuner. Is mysqltuner
inaccurate?
Mysql is used for storing fulltext obtained throuhg OCR from different
documents. Is there a way
to make a chart on how much memory is needed for a given number of pages or
documents?
thanks,
v
