Hmm, AFAIK these logfiles are transactions logs for disk management of the database (and not something like a syslog) "Usually the redo log should be large enough and never fill up. Consequently your Innodb_log_waits counter should be 0 or at least not move when you look at it twice. If you experience Innodb_log_wait events one of two situations exists: Your server has write bursts larger than your redo log - the redo log is too small and must be extended. Or your server has persistent high write load and the redo log will overflow no matter how large you make it. In this case, but more disks or choose other ways to distribute the write load to more spindles. By default the redo log consists of two files (innodb_log_files_in_group), each of which is 5M in size (innodb_log_file_size), for a total of 10M. This is usually much to small. Ideally you should have two files which are 64M to 256M in size, resulting in a total redo log of 128M to 512M. In any case the redo log cannot be larger than 4096M = 4G, even if you are on a 64 bit box." (from: http://mysqldump.azundris.com/archives/78-Configuring-InnoDB-An-InnoDB-tutorial.html ) If space does not matter like on any modern PC and you want a high speed database: stay with the 2x 64M. Its more like a cache and will not grow. If you have GBytes of DIMAP data on your disk then 128MB is irrelevant. But if you only use some contacts with Akonadi InnoDB seems to be way too powerful. On the N900 Akonadi for kmobile-kontact is defined as > innodb_buffer_pool_size=8M > innodb_log_file_size=2M > innodb_flush_log_at_trx_commit=2 HTH Thorsten ___________________________________________________ This message is from the kde mailing list.
