Subject:bulk_insert_buffer_size and InnoDB
View as plain text  
Dear all,

I read the following on this page
<http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/server-system-variables.html>:

> bulk_insert_buffer_size
>
> MyISAM uses a special tree-like cache to make bulk inserts faster for
> INSERT ... SELECT, INSERT ... VALUES (...), (...), ..., and LOAD DATA
> INFILE. This variable limits the size of the cache tree in bytes per
> thread. Setting it to 0 disables this optimization. Note: This cache is
> used only when adding data to a non-empty table. The default value is
> 8MB. This variable was added in MySQL 4.0.3. This variable previously
> was named myisam_bulk_insert_tree_size.

I take this to mean that bulk_insert_buffer_size has no bearing on
InnoDB tables, only on MyISAM tables. Is this correct?

Thanks in advance,

Jan Pieter Kunst
