Re: MariaDB server horribly slow on start

 

Reading this: https://jira.mariadb.org/browse/MDEV-27295

It's quite unclear when it is fixed or reverted.

That said I read that the following setting might fix it:
	SET GLOBAL innodb_max_dirty_pages_pct_lwm=0.001;

Is that correct and should I try that and see if that helps?

If it leaves the log to fill up to 90% and the state transfer hits, it could be that with the checkpoint age already high, there just isn't enough headroom to avoid a massive stall. Purely guessing here without any telemetry.

What version was it reverted in?
I am still seeing the errant redo log flushing behaviour in 10.5.15.
It looks like no flushing happens until the hwm is reached at about 85% full. It then tries to commit everything down to the lwm. And inbetween it doesn't do anything, even while everything is idle and it should be running down the
