FYI, in 10 hours the database has grown slightly more than 1G. That's an extensive growth rate. Looking at the yaml files, I'm seeing 410k per file * 400 nodes = 160Mb per 30 minutes. Is there really no optimization that is performed on the data stored in the database? Coming up with a few hundred gigabytes of file storage is one thing. Trying to make mysql perform well with 100Gb database is an entirely different matter. -- Jo Rhett Net Consonance : consonant endings by net philanthropy, open source and other randomness -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
