Hi,
I haven't been following this thread, but I had a possibly related(?)
experience:
We ran a self-compiled 3.23.46 for the better part of a year with no
trouble. We upgraded to the mysql-max-3.23.51 binary and had periodic
"lockups" (the period being 2hrs to 5 days, and the "lockups" lasting
from five to ten minutes; during the lockups the load would quickly go
to over 200).
I posted to the list with the subject "InnoDB: Looong pause when log
file is full?" I thought it was InnoDB tables, which I hadn't used
before. After no luck getting it to work, I switched back to MyISAM
tables but it made no difference.
I switched back to a newly-self-compiled 3.23.46 and the problems went
away. Same config file, same application software, same or higher
loads.
I know this sort of report is next to useless---I can't replicate the
bug in the small, it's intermittent, and I'm unwilling to experiment
on our live site. But maybe I'm not the only one experiencing it.
