Abstract

Throughout Part IV of this book, there have been several examples of configuration options that influence the behavior of MySQL. These options include the choice of character sets and collations, how to create index statistics, how the optimizer should work, and more. There are also other options that directly or indirectly influence the performance of your queries. This chapter will consider the most commonly used options not covered elsewhere as well as some general considerations when it comes to configuring MySQL.
