Re: what'll make a good mysql server



i actually have 512M of RAM and havent maximized it yet.  is it possible to
"force" mysql to load all data in RAM just like what you mentioned below?

TIA,
chad


heres my _# free_ output BTW:
             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:        517260     318212     199048      13084      15888     244032
-/+ buffers/cache:      58292     458968
Swap:       256968          0     256968


and this is how part of my /etc/mysql/my.cnf looks like BTW just in case you
guys have some suggestions:
set-variable = connect_timeout=40
set-variable = max_connections=300
set-variable = join_buffer=16M
set-variable = key_buffer=256M
set-variable = record_buffer=16M
set-variable = sort_buffer=16M
set-variable = max_allowed_packet=2M
set-variable = thread_stack=128K
set-variable = table_cache=900
