在 linux 下，經常出現的情況就是使用 VBB 這種論壇系統時，出現緩慢，mysql 假死狀態，sleep進程過多等等現像。導致幾十個用戶，就把系統搞定了。
其實這是 mysql 配置上的問題， 默認的 linux 中， mysql 的配置是 my-large.cnf 配置，該配置適合大型服務器。有高內存，比如2G，4G內存的，適合使用，而一般512M內存 的就不行了。它會占用512M內存來保存系統 mysql 的進程，這些進程長期堆質，並不釋放，導致系統緩慢。所以，把配置改變成為 my-small.cnf ，小型配置就可以了。它的配置如下：
# Example mysql config file for small systems.
#
# This is for a system with little memory (<= 64M) where MySQL is only used
# from time to time and its important that the mysqld deamon
# doesnt use much resources.
#
# You can copy this file to
# /etc/my.cnf to set global options,
# mysql-data-dir/my.cnf to set server-specific options (in this
# installation this directory is /var/lib/mysql) or
# ~/.my.cnf to set user-specific options.
#
# One can in this file use all long options that the program supports.
# If you want to know which options a program support, run the program
# with --help option.
# The following options will be passed to all MySQL clients
[client]
#password = 你的密碼
port = 3306
socket = /tmp/mysql.sock
# Here follows entries for some specific programs
# The MySQL server
[mysqld]
port = 3306
socket = /tmp/mysql.sock

set-variable = key_buffer=16K
set-variable = max_allowed_packet=1M

set-variable = sort_buffer=64K

# Uncomment the following if you are NOT using BDB tables

#innodb_data_home_dir = /var/lib/mysql/
#innodb_data_file_path = ibdata1:10M:autoextend
#innodb_log_group_home_dir = /var/lib/mysql/
#innodb_log_arch_dir = /var/lib/mysql/
# You can set .._buffer_pool_size up to 50 - 80 %
# of RAM but beware of setting memory usage too high
#set-variable = innodb_buffer_pool_size=16M
#set-variable = innodb_additional_mem_pool_size=2M
# Set .._log_file_size to 25 % of buffer pool size
#set-variable = innodb_log_file_size=5M
#set-variable = innodb_log_buffer_size=8M
#innodb_flush_log_at_trx_commit=1
#set-variable = innodb_lock_wait_timeout=50

以上配置足夠 你的系統高速運行 mysql 了，sleep的進程，很快就被回收，不占資源，這非常適合小型服務器。一般個人托管的服務器也很適合。
