MySQL & MariaDB Other MySQL® Questions

Dear Sirs,

I have an invision power board running in a powerful machine.

These are my machine configuration ( its a dedicated)

Intel Core i5-750
4 x 2,66 GHz
6 GB DDR3-RAM
100mbit line

Currently I am running apache2 and mysql only.

The database size is somewhat around 750 MB and I have arround 500 - 600 users online.

Can someone help me go through the my.cnf and tell me how i can optimize it even more.

  1. Are you experiencing any performance problems?
    And if you are are they CPU or I/O related?

  2. And what does the output from SHOW GLOBAL STATUS look like?

  3. Have you used the Slow Query Log to see if you have any queries that are in need of optimization?

As you can understand we need more information about your system to say anything.

Dear Sterin,

I am noticing that my website gets pretty slow when their are arround 1000 users online - therefor i am looking into this issue )

honestly - until u told me about show global status, i didnt know about it - here is the output

As i am using Invision power board software as forum, i dont do optimization in queries - correct me if i am wrong please.

I do understand u need information ) I am really noob into this mysql / apache stuff - please ask me and i will give what ever required info. This is a learning process for me.

thankyou for being kind answering my query )
