MySQL consuming too much memory












0















Version : mysql Ver 15.1 Distrib 10.3.9-MariaDB



OS : CentOS Linux release 7.5.1804 (Core)



Specification : 384GB RAM





Context :



I am using this server only for database (with no other processes running). Currently, I am doing mass insertions (migrating) into the this server (potentially few terabytes data).



Despite setting my buffer pool to only 240G, somehow the total used memory shown by top or free -m is almost close to 95% (370GB+) of my total physical RAM (384GB).



However, the strange thing is the total memory used by mysqld is shown as 240GB+ (via top command).



To further confirm that the 370GB+ RAM was used by mysqld and not some hidden processes, I restarted MariaDB via service mariadb restart. The moment it restarted successfully, I verified the memory usage via free -m and saw almost 340GB+ free (under available column).



Hence, am I missing out in some settings in my configuration file or is that how mysqld fundamentally work? Or could it also be there are memory leaks, which resulted in memory not being freed properly in mysqld?

      Version : mysql Ver 15.1 Distrib 10.3.9-MariaDB



      OS : CentOS Linux release 7.5.1804 (Core)



      Specification : 384GB RAM





      Context :



      I am using this server only for database (with no other processes running). Currently, I am doing mass insertions (migrating) into the this server (potentially few terabytes data).



      Despite setting my buffer pool to only 240G, somehow the total used memory shown by top or free -m is almost close to 95% (370GB+) of my total physical RAM (384GB).



      However, the strange thing is the total memory used by mysqld is shown as 240GB+ (via top command).



      To further confirm that the 370GB+ RAM was used by mysqld and not some hidden processes, I restarted MariaDB via service mariadb restart. The moment it restarted successfully, I verified the memory usage via free -m and saw almost 340GB+ free (under available column).



      Hence, am I missing out in some settings in my configuration file or is that how mysqld fundamentally work? Or could it also be there are memory leaks, which resulted in memory not being freed properly in mysqld?

      Version : mysql Ver 15.1 Distrib 10.3.9-MariaDB



      OS : CentOS Linux release 7.5.1804 (Core)



      Specification : 384GB RAM





      Context :



      I am using this server only for database (with no other processes running). Currently, I am doing mass insertions (migrating) into the this server (potentially few terabytes data).



      Despite setting my buffer pool to only 240G, somehow the total used memory shown by top or free -m is almost close to 95% (370GB+) of my total physical RAM (384GB).



      However, the strange thing is the total memory used by mysqld is shown as 240GB+ (via top command).



      To further confirm that the 370GB+ RAM was used by mysqld and not some hidden processes, I restarted MariaDB via service mariadb restart. The moment it restarted successfully, I verified the memory usage via free -m and saw almost 340GB+ free (under available column).



      Hence, am I missing out in some settings in my configuration file or is that how mysqld fundamentally work? Or could it also be there are memory leaks, which resulted in memory not being freed properly in mysqld?

          Do not set max_connections so high. Suggest 1000.



          innodb_buffer_pool_instances = 16



          For further investigation, please provide SHOW GLOBAL STATUS; and SHOW VARIABLES; after it has been running for a day.



          Have you done the math? How long will it take to load all the data? How fast does it come in? (I have tips if you need them.)

            Do not set max_connections so high. Suggest 1000.



            innodb_buffer_pool_instances = 16



            For further investigation, please provide SHOW GLOBAL STATUS; and SHOW VARIABLES; after it has been running for a day.



            Have you done the math? How long will it take to load all the data? How fast does it come in? (I have tips if you need them.)
