"To clarify the impact of the patches: there are two Percona patches which apply here - but both are disabled by default. One is to increase the number of undo slots so that you can have more concurrent…"

Thomas A. Lekai replied to Thomas A. Lekai's discussion ibdata grows exponentially when file-per-table is configured using InnoDB
"I hear you, and I am actually reading this is normal. I think what is going on is that my client is using a very large innodb log file size (2 GB), and once it flushes, it flushes in a big way. I also read that InnoDB still uses the ibdata files for…"

ibdata grows exponentially when file-per-table is configured using InnoDB

Chris, Have you ever heard of this?  I am working with a client that has some crazy growth in their ibdata files, even though they have configured file-per-table option.  They are using a Percona patch, and my gut is telling me that something is off on the binaries that they are using from Percona.  Let me know if you ever heard of this. Regards, Thomas.See More

Gotcha, even though I worked with Oracle in 9i and 10g, it has been a little while. I am going to brush up on the weekend, but most of that work I just hold in the reference part of my mind, and I focus on being a MySql DBA. I have done several 24X7 roles (S&P, Y&R, FortuneCity, PRNewswire, Vonage), so I am not new to that. Send me your private mail at arbifox@hotmail.com.

Remember, 10g and 11g RAC and attitude will be a focus. If you have been in a 24x7 DBA ops role before that is also key! Let me know if you have any questions.
