… graph actually doesn’t show a ratio — it just shows the absolute values of the reads, writes, and creates per second, stacked on top of each other. The person was mentally comparing them and creating a ratio from them. But there’s no ratio on the graph itself: Regardless of that, some systems ought to have more reads than writes…

I have noticed the write delays on large data writes such as repairs, but with a mixed read-write load it happens less frequently… only in the following scenarios: – A database with a read write ratio below 80% read / 20% write. – Slave servers to maximise throughput without having to…
Comment: Percona XtraDB Cluster Feature 2: Multi-Master replication
Vadim, I use Percona Server 5.1 in a Two Master No Slave MMM configuration. The read write ratio of our application is 90/10. How do I distribute the reads and writes in a 3 Node Percona XtraDB Cluster? My method today is via MySQL MMM of Read & Write Roles virtual IP through a JDBC connection.

I believe that ext3 is taking an exclusive rwlock on each write and doesn’t release… COW operation and so it chokes readers once again.
