Use bigger cache_mem (128 or 256MB), maximum_object_size_in_memory (I have 128 KB), maximum_object_size (I have 32 MB), asynchronuous disk writes (diskd on freebsd 4, aufs otherwise), set up cache_dir of size 60000 for each 72GB disk, and use heap LFUDA or LRU cache_replacement_policy. the rest requires long-term watching performance and trying to adjust options. -- Matus UHLAR - fantomas, uhlar@xxxxxxxxxxx ; http://www.fantomas.sk/ Warning: I wish NOT to receive e-mail advertising to this address.
