Hello,
I'm using MySQL 5.1 and I heard somewhere that the ndb cluster can be
configured to not save your tables in RAM and instead just use disk.
Does anyone know what configuration this is and is it possible to
configure only certain nodes to store on disk and other nodes to store
in ram?\
This is a bit of mis-information. NDB supports storing of non-indexed
columns to an on-disk tablespace as of 5.1.6.
5.1 still uses a significant amount of memory for those indexed columns,
and any tables not associated to a tablespace. But, obviously it is not
nearly as much as 5.0 does.
