Hi all,
Do you have a MySQL server running somewhere? I’ve seen many and many MySQL servers running with the default configuration, even the mysql_secure_installation command being ignored. Let’s talk about a tip to tune your server.
innodb_buffer_pool_chunk_size=134217728
This config, tells the server how many memory it can use, the default (using 8.0 and 5.7) its 128MB, that’s way less then it could be, in general. I usually set about 75% of the total ram of the server IF you just have the database on that server. With that, you have enough memory to accommodate OS processes and the MySQL. You can set this in your my.cfn file.
Be aware this is not a silver bullet, and if your server has a lot of ram, let’s say > 100GB, if you set at 75%, you still have about 25GB free, and that’s way more than the SO needs. So it’s all a matter of your server memory size.
Make sure you review this point on next time!
