I have 2 nodes running with the following specifications:
10 CPUs
16GB RAM
8GB Swap
The “Threads_connected” count is approximately 80, and the CPU values of the hosts are insufficient. I notice that certain long-running queries are causing freezes at regular intervals. Do you have any suggestions other than adding CPU resources?
Threads_connected doesn’t matter; that’s just the total number of connections. What really matters is Threads_Running; these are threads actually doing work. You can have 10,000 T_connected, and only 10 T_running.
