I'm trying to batch up inserts to a database using MySQLdb. When I get to something over 10,000 records per call, I get an exception:
_mysql_exceptions.OperationalError: (1153, "Got a packet bigger than 'max_allowed_packet' bytes") Is there any way (other than trial and error) to know how many records I can pass in one call before I blow up? As a practical matter, if I do batches of 1000 per call, I've probably gotten as much performance enhancement as I need, but it would be nice to know if there's a useful way to determine exactly what the maximum is. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
