PROJECT: Adding parallelism to mysqldump
WEEK 06
KEY ACCOMPLISHMENTS LAST WEEK
None.
KEY TASKS THAT STALLED LAST WEEK
Out-of-memory error when dumping big databases
KEY CONCERNS
I couldn’t fix the out-of-memory error. It only happens when I have DBs with big tables. The error happens because memory to the dynamic string could not be allocated. Hope I can fix this soon and move on with the project.
TASKS IN THE UPCOMING WEEK
* Solve the out-of-memory error
* Start using BZR to submit patches, and also submit to internals mailing list, to get feedback from the community
* Start refining the prototype to add a command-line parameter to specify the number of threads
