#1-- MYSQL PERFORMANCE TUNING PRIMER --
- By: Matthew Montgomery -
MySQL Version 5.0.45-community-log i686
Uptime = 2 days 7 hrs 49 min 29 sec
Avg. qps = 14
Total Questions = 2991819
Threads Connected = 7
Server has been running for over 48hrs.
It should be safe to follow these recommendations

runtime variables effects performance visit:

SLOW QUERIES
The slow query log is enabled.
Current long_query_time = 5 sec.
You have 90086 out of 2991840 that take longer than 5 sec. to complete
Your long_query_time seems to be fine
BINARY UPDATE LOG
The binary update log is NOT enabled.
You will not be able to do point in time recovery
See http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/point-in-time-recovery.html
WORKER THREADS
Current thread_cache_size = 8
Current threads_cached = 5
Current threads_per_sec = 0
Historic threads_per_sec = 0
Your thread_cache_size is fine
MAX CONNECTIONS
Current max_connections = 200
Current threads_connected = 7
Historic max_used_connections = 22
The number of used connections is 11% of the configured maximum.
Your max_connections variable seems to be fine.
MEMORY USAGE
Max Memory Ever Allocated : 119 M
Configured Max Per-thread Buffers : 672 M
Configured Max Global Buffers : 46 M
Configured Max Memory Limit : 718 M
Physical Memory : 1.99 G
Max memory limit seem to be within acceptable norms
KEY BUFFER
Current MyISAM index space = 49 M
Current key_buffer_size = 16 M
Key cache miss rate is 1 : 636
Key buffer free ratio = 0 %
You could increase key_buffer_size
It is safe to raise this up to 1/4 of total system memory;
assuming this is a dedicated database server.
QUERY CACHE
Query cache is enabled
Current query_cache_size = 20 M
Current query_cache_used = 9 M
Current query_cache_limit = 1 M
Current Query cache Memory fill ratio = 45.28 %
Current query_cache_min_res_unit = 4 K
MySQL won't cache query results that are larger than query_cache_limit in size
SORT OPERATIONS
Current sort_buffer_size = 1 M
Current read_rnd_buffer_size = 256 K
Sort buffer seems to be fine
JOINS
Current join_buffer_size = 1.00 M
You have had 28056 queries where a join could not use an index properly
You should enable "log-queries-not-using-indexes"
Then look for non indexed joins in the slow query log.
If you are unable to optimize your queries you may want to increase your
join_buffer_size to accommodate larger joins in one pass.
Note! This script will still suggest raising the join_buffer_size when
ANY joins not using indexes are found.
OPEN FILES LIMIT
Current open_files_limit = 1500 files
The open_files_limit should typically be set to at least 2x-3x
that of table_cache if you have heavy MyISAM usage.
Your open_files_limit value seems to be fine
TABLE CACHE
Current table_cache value = 600 tables
You have a total of 120 tables
You have 502 open tables.
The table_cache value seems to be fine
TEMP TABLES
Current max_heap_table_size = 16 M
Current tmp_table_size = 20 M
Of 264436 temp tables, 35% were created on disk
Effective in-memory tmp_table_size is limited to max_heap_table_size.
Perhaps you should increase your tmp_table_size and/or max_heap_table_size
to reduce the number of disk-based temporary tables
Note! BLOB and TEXT columns are not allow in memory tables.
If you are using these columns raising these values might not impact your
ratio of on disk temp tables.
TABLE SCANS
Current read_buffer_size = 1020 K
Current table scan ratio = 517 : 1
read_buffer_size seems to be fine
TABLE LOCKING
Current Lock Wait ratio = 1 : 595
You may benefit from selective use of InnoDB.
If you have long running SELECT's against MyISAM tables and perform
frequent updates consider setting 'low_priority_updates=1'
If you have a high concurrency of inserts on Dynamic row-length tables
consider setting 'concurrent_insert=2'.
