Hi I'm configuring a CentOS 7 VPS with 4 vCore and 24gb of RAM, I installed cPanel and I'm using it to host 2 Wordpress sites. There are 2 small dbs, totally about 400MB.

The sites in production will have about 10k visits monthly, now the visits are low.

Mysqld uses high cpu, about 80-120%, without processes on SQL. I didn't edit default SQL configuration, how can I set my db options?

Should you have some advice for my.cnf? I could keep the entire database on RAM, is it bad?

I launched mysqltuner, this is the result, I tried to edit my.cnf and restart, but it's in the same situation.

Code:
query_cache_size (=0)
query_cache_type (=0)
query_cache_limit (> 1M, or use smaller result sets)
sort_buffer_size (> 256K)
read_rnd_buffer_size (> 256K)
tmp_table_size (> 16M)
max_heap_table_size (> 16M)
performance_schema = ON enable PFS
innodb_buffer_pool_size (>= 318.0M) if possible.
innodb_log_file_size should be (=16M) if possible, so InnoDB total log files size equals to 25% of buffer pool size.
Thank you.

-------- Recommendations ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
General recommendations:
    Control warning line(s) into /var/log/mysqld.log file
    Control error line(s) into /var/log/mysqld.log file
    Configure your accounts with ip or subnets only, then update your configuration with skip-name-resolve=1
    Adjust your join queries to always utilize indexes
    When making adjustments, make tmp_table_size/max_heap_table_size equal
    Reduce your SELECT DISTINCT queries which have no LIMIT clause
    Performance schema should be activated for better diagnostics
    Before changing innodb_log_file_size and/or innodb_log_files_in_group read this:
Variables to adjust:
    query_cache_size (=0)
    query_cache_type (=0)
    query_cache_limit (> 1M, or use smaller result sets)
    sort_buffer_size (> 256K)
    read_rnd_buffer_size (> 256K)
    join_buffer_size (> 256.0K, or always use indexes with JOINs)
    tmp_table_size (> 16M)
    max_heap_table_size (> 16M)
    performance_schema = ON enable PFS
    innodb_buffer_pool_size (>= 318.0M) if possible.
    innodb_log_file_size should be (=16M) if possible, so InnoDB total log files size equals to 25% of buffer pool size.

Hello @Igor Z.,

Advice about tuning specific configuration values typically requires the help of a qualified system administrator. I'll leave this thread open for additional user-feedback, but I did want to note the "mysqladmin processlist" command is helpful if you are noticing poor MySQL performance. The command can help determine if any specific databases are responsible for the poor performance.

You can also find a list of companies offering system administration services if you do not receive sufficient user-feedback to this thread:

Thank you.
