Tuning MySQL - Adding indexes, lots of them: Shotgun Strategy
This discussion got me thinking...
http://groups.drupal.org/node/56438#comment-160418
So I decided to create some code that will auto add indexes to your CCK fields where there are none. Works for me (using MySQL), may not work for you. Also at the bottom is code to add indexes elsewhere in Drupal.
<?php
$ret = array();
// Add indexes to CCK fields
$result = db_query("SHOW TABLES LIKE 'content_%'");
while ($table = db_result($result)) {
if ($table == 'content_group') {
db_add_index($ret, 'content_group', 'weight', array('weight'));

Read moreBig MySQL database, what is the best practice to backup (VPS/Dedicated)?
Hello,
My website (shared hosting) is growing bigger.
Usually I backup using MySQLDumper (http://www.mysqldumper.net/)
It will backup fine, also no error when restoring. Then, when browse the site, some post will missing (not found), but the link to that missing posts still there. I have no idea whats going on. When looking at the database by checking the tables and compare it to the original database, it looks like no data loss, with same number of lines.
I dont really like idea of dump database. MySQLDumper is just best choice for shared hosting.
Read moreDrupal 6 and mysql persistent connections
Hello.
I've created mysq version of database.mysql.inc to correctly work with mysql_pconnect to make available persistent connections.
The main problems were table locks and temporary tables - I've solved it using register_shutdown_function() for script.
Now looks like all working properly.(one project runs using this patched version)
But this patch is for case site using one database only. File is attached.

Today Amazon announced a provided service for hosting MySQL databases in the cloud: Amazon Relational Database Service. It starts at $0.11/hr, plus $0.10 per GB/month of storage and $0.10 per million I/O requests. The real interesting question is how these will perform. The instances come in many flavors:
- Small: 1.7 GB memory, 1 virtual core with 1 ECU. $0.11/hr
- Large: 7.5 GB memory, 2 virtual cores with 2 ECUs each. $0.44/hr
- Extra Large: 15 GB of memory, 4 virtual cores with 2 ECUs each. $0.88/hr
- Double Extra Large: 34 GB of memory, 4 virtual cores with 3,25 ECUs each. $1.55/hr
- Quadruple Extra Large: 68 GB of memory, 8 virtual cores with 3.25 ECUs each. $3.10/hr
That "Quadrupal XL" is pretty big! I'll be investigating this for Pantheon, but anyone else with experience/info, let's figure out how good these things really are!

Hey all,
I created a new handbook page with a short script, and I wanted folks to take a look and see what they thought. The script cycles through all the site nodes, loads them, then saves them.
Read moreI need some advice about merging one content type and it's fields into three different content types.. let me explain...
On our site we have a content type called product showcase. This content type was using to store information about products our company has certified. After awhile it became apparent that what I had developed wasn't good enough. We were constantly changing how the fields worked and things were getting sloppy.
