This run is exactly the same as Disk Bound but with innodb_buffer_pool_size=8G which is more… will show more gains, though not 1.5x as for IO bound workload. One may ask why CPU is not fully used…
Post: A case for MariaDB's Hash Joins
… have benchmarked two different kinds of workloads, IO bound and in-memory. Benchmark on IO bound workload was performed with a buffer pool size… actuality the query took 31654 seconds to finish in the IO bound workload. Again here hash join beats BKA and BNL comprehensively… C, Hash Join takes similar amount of time both for IO bound workload and in-memory workload. Why, because Hash Join implies…
Post: Predicting Performance improvements from memory increase
… can improve performance order of magnitude by converting very IO bound load to CPU bound, it is well possible to see limited gains… memory is helpful to solve this problem. If it is IO bound (high IO system utilization, low CPU usage) one should think about… if we have very IO bound application without serialization issues (say reporting slave) which is very IO bound showing 100% IO subsystem utilization on 5…
Post: Index Condition Pushdown in MySQL 5.6 and MariaDB 5.5 and its performance impact
I have been working with Peter in preparation for the talk comparing the optimizer enhancements in MySQL 5.6 and MariaDB 5.5. We are taking a look at and benchmarking optimizer enhancements one by one. So in the same way this blog post is aimed at a new optimizer enhancement Index Condition …
