Description: Limit in bytes of the InnoDB FULLTEXT index query result cache per fulltext query. The latter stages of the full-text search are handled in memory, and limiting this prevents excess memory usage. If the limit is exceeded, the query returns an error.

Default: 2000000000

I want to know if for example both queries run FTS query in parallel, MySQL Allocate about 1907MB to per query (if query wants) ?

Because we have to many FTS query and all are complex query which lead to growing use of RAM.

Update 1

This is one our query:

select id,title,content,time,c_count,agency_name
    from news join agency use(id)
    where time >= '2016-10-01 00:00:00'
      and time <  '2016-11-01 00:00:00'
      and match("content") against('+("Hello" "Hi" "Hey")+("World" "All" "guys")'
            in boolean mode)
    order by c_count desc

  • 180GB of RAM, so that is about 1% of RAM? What is Max_used_connections; better yet, how many queries are likely to run in parallel?

  • Do you use OR in any of the complex queries? (That usually prevents use of indexes.) Can you show us one of the queries, together with SHOW CREATE TABLE?

  • Yes Rick we use OR but in Fulltext for example: match(content) against('"Hello" "Hi" "Good Morning"'). Max used connection is 32. max_tmp_table set to 512M. It's not obvious how many queries run in parallel. Sometimes four quries, sometimes eight etc. This is one our query: Look at Update 1

  • Wouldn't that match content="All attendees said 'Hello'."?

  • Suggest that you write a bug at bugs.mysql.com -- it seems unconscionable for a default value to involve 2GB of RAM, even if there is only one instance per server. Even worse since it is "per FTS query or per thread". (That seems ambiguous.)

I wrote a bug report to complain about the default value of that setting.
