MySQL tuning memory

[mehnihma]

I have some MySQL problems, I am not sure how to tune memory settings

-------- Recommendations -----------------------------------------------------
General recommendations:
Run OPTIMIZE TABLE to defragment tables for better performance
Reduce your overall MySQL memory footprint for system stability
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 without LIMIT clauses
Increase table_cache gradually to avoid file descriptor limits
Read this before increasing table_cache over 64: table_cache negative scalability - MySQL Performance Blog
Variables to adjust:
*** MySQL's maximum memory usage is dangerously high ***
*** Add RAM before increasing MySQL buffer variables ***
join_buffer_size (> 128.0M, or always use indexes with joins)
tmp_table_size (> 128M)
max_heap_table_size (> 128M)
table_cache (> 2000)

[mysqld]
# InnoDB settings

query_cache_limit=128M
key_buffer = 256M
query_cache_size = 256M
max_connections = 400
innodb_lock_wait_timeout = 100


I have server with 16GB ram and MySQL 5.6 I am not sure how to set it properly and ask for advice

Thanks

Can you help me to set it up?

Also when I add table_cache to my.cfn, MySQL does not load?

Thanks

That variable should be table_open_cache in recent mysql versions like 5.6. The default value has been increased considerably in 5.6 and is 2000.

You should let MySQL run for at least 24 hours to get accurate results from a tuner. Your second test shows that it was only running for around four minutes.

Thank you.
