I love this cologne it matches with my body chemistry. I don't like the fresh or fresh showered smell, I don't like a cologne that diminishes during the day. I live in Florida and a good smell can diminish quickly. I've has a lot of compliments on the fragrance. The price at Fragrance X is a GREAT VALUE. They priced in under duty free international prices and cheaper than on a cruise

This was my favorite scent over the years--I got my first bottle in college in the late 1970's and have been buying it ever since. I ran out of it recently, and bought this bottle. At first I thought I was just getting old, and falling into the "nothing is the same" trap. But comparing the way it smells to the old bottle (which I kept), my nose told me it isn't the same fragrance at all. They reformulated it, and it's a fraud on the people who spend their money on it, expecting the wonderful fragrance and getting this swill instead.

I use 1cup man 1cup sour cream ranch mix and some zesty or feasta ranch to tast add cheese tomato onion bacon bits or what ever else u like it gets saltyer after it set like mine creamy
This pasta salad is quick to make, easy, and delicious. Best of all, it used ingredients that I had on hand already when I needed a good recipe for pasta salad. It really is good!! I will be making this again. Thanks Tearannii!!
Excellent!! I made using the ingredients listed, although using Fat Free Wishbone Ranch, and Light Hellmans Mayo instead of sour cream (only because I was out). I used real bacon bits and added onion powder. I made for Thanksgiving and multiplied recipe for 20 people. Huge amount of pasta! Very good recipe. Everyone will love it tomorrow! Thanks.
I gotta go with "luvmy2boys" - I didn't care for this one either. to me, it tasted lacking and bland. Maybe it needs a specific Ranch? Sorry!
This salad is delicious! I left out the garlic powder. Ranch is garlicky enough! I did add 4 T. of salsa to the dressing. I also used Vidalia onion instead of green. I might add some minced green pepper, celery, or carrot next time. I will make this often, I am sure. Thanks for a great, inspiring recipe!
This is my DD's favorite salad! I make this all the time, and cannot believe I haven't rated it!! I usually leave out the green onion for her and use dried minced onion in its place, as she is a child and doesn't like green in her food:)Thanks for the wonderful recipe.
Wish I could give this 5 stars like everyone else! But it just didn't have enough flavor for us-maybe because I used whole wheat pasta & turkey bacon-so I'll take the rap for that!! Thanks anyway for sharing.
Yummy! I made this for a family BBQ and everyone loved it. It was so easy to make. I will definitely make this over and over...but next time will make a double batch to have leftovers!
Fantastic pasta salad! I didn't add anything extra in or take anything away,I followed the recipe perfectly. I added fresh fried bacon instead of the bagged stuff and mixed that in right before we ate it so it wouldn't get mushey.This is the perfect side dish for bar-be-que...Thanks!
I made this recipe for dinner. I left out the onions also, but added a little onion powder and sliced carrots. It was excellent and easy to make. I will definetly be making this all summer.

This paper presents techniques for characterizing wide-band on-chip power supply noise using only two on-chip low-throughput samplers. The properties of supply noise and their associated measurement techniques are reviewed to show how this can be achieved. An initial design of the samplers uses high-resolution VCO-based analog-to-digital converters, and experimental results from a test-chip verify the efficacy of the measurement techniques. To enable simple sampler designs to be used even in aggressively scaled process technologies, measurement systems based on dithered low-resolution samplers are also developed and experimentally characterized.

Winner of the Lane Anderson Award for Best Science Writing
An authoritative and fascinating exploration of the natural history of the east coast of North America.
The North Atlantic coast of North America -- commonly known as the Atlantic Coast -- extends from Newfoundland and Labrador through the Maritime Provinces and the Northeastern United States south to Cape Hatteras. This North Atlantic region belongs to the sea. The maritime influence on climate, flora, and fauna is dominant -- even far inland. This is where the great northern boreal forests intermingle with the mixed coniferous-hardwood forests farther south and where the cold, iceberg-studded Labrador Current from the Arctic and the warm Gulf Stream of the tropics vie for supremacy.
Filled with stunning photographs, the book includes chapters on the geological origins of this region, the two major forest realms, and the main freshwater and marine ecosystems and also describes the flora and fauna within each of these habitats. Finally, it looks at what has been lost but also what remains of the natural heritage of the region and how that might be conserved in future.
Written by the Atlantic regionís best-known nature writer, Harry Thurston, The Atlantic Coast draws upon the most up-to-date science on the ecology of the region as well as the authorís lifetime experience as a biologist and naturalist. It is both a personal tribute and an accessible, comprehensive guide to an intriguing ecosystem.

Nanny, you put slugs on the compost heap??
Love that your puppy drank the Newky brown!
Hideous beasts the lot of them. Mine look suspiciously like the Spanish variety. And I saw one on my kniphofia too! That's it, I'm getting rid!
Ok I will try and leave them... Thank you for the advice
Ugh yuk. Don't they eat plants then?? I imagined them happily chomping their way through entire trees. I saw 3 of them curled up together, must have been some repulsive slug orgy thing. So you reckon I should leave them be?
Last few evenings I have seen lots of enormous orange slugs slithering along the sleepers, lawn and paths. I can only imagine they have recently hatched out. I have collected about 20 each night but no doubt there are many many more. I don't think our hedgehogs will want to eat them, in fact I'm slightly concerned they might have eaten the hedgehogs!
Sanjy67 put some bird seed in the scarecrows hair, might encourage them!
Lily, I want your seat and your birdbath... and my dog wants that pond!
Joybell, any idea which penstemon it is? Its so pretty, love tall perenials.
Pat, amazing space, you really have your work cut out
Lily, I'm seriously envious of your woodland garden.. not of the amount of work that must be involved though
Joybell what are those lovely tall pink flowers in your 3rd pic down? And the tall white ones for that matter?
Wow Lily you have your own wood? How beautiful. Bet that doggy loves it!

F5 Networks, Imperva, Penta Security Systems And Barracuda Networks Emerge As Champions In The APAC Web Application Firewall Vendors Frost IQ Matrix, Says Frost & Sullivan
SINGAPORE, Dec. 18, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- The necessity of relying on web applications to drive business processes has given rise to the popularity of Web Application Firewall (WAF) solutions for many organisations in the Asia Pacific region. Employing web applications allows companies to run their businesses more effectively in several ways, such as enhancing the user experience or reducing overhead costs. This has, in turn, led to an increased possibility of security breaches in the corporate network, especially with cyber attacks becoming more prevalent. A rising number of these sophisticated attacks are also happening at the application level.As such, enterprises are beginning to acknowledge the limitations of their traditional network firewalls and recognise that these sophisticated threats can only be rectified through the utilisation of a WAF solution. The shift towards securing web applications is also due to stringent regulatory requirements for client data protection and privacy laws in light of essential services such as Internet banking and e-commerce transactions. Frost & Sullivan has evaluated the top ten web application firewall vendors in the Asia Pacific region and assessed them using the Frost Industry Quotient (Frost IQ) matrix. The Frost IQ matrix comprises of four quadrants: 'champions', 'challengers', 'defenders' and 'explorers'. The Frost Industry Quotient - Frost IQ, is a proprietary Frost & Sullivan vendor assessment tool that accurately operationalises and captures the merits and challenges faced by technology vendors in their respective segments and geographies. The tool aims to provide key decision makers with a localised yet objective perspective of the industry in a highly heterogeneous business environment. In the Frost IQ for Asia Pacific Web Application Firewall Vendors 2013 , F5 Networks, Imperva, Penta Security Systems and Barracuda Networks have been positioned in the champions' quadrant, based on a combination of market share performance and future growth strategies as determined by Frost & Sullivan research studies. WAFs can be largely divided into three forms; standalone WAF appliances, integrated WAF on an Application Delivery Controller (ADC) or software WAF solutions. At present, standalone appliances remain the preferred form factor in the Asia Pacific region, accounting for 77.7 per cent of the market. However, this may change in the future. Edison Yu, Associate Director, ICT Practice, Frost & Sullivan Asia Pacific says, "Standalone versions are generally perceived as a better option for protecting mission-critical web applications but the cost-effective integrated WAF solutions have been gaining popularity. This is especially so for businesses such as service providers and Small and Medium Businesses (SMBs) who appreciate the lower costs and ease of use generated (by integrated WAFs)." In 2012, the web application firewall market in the Asia Pacific region was largely dominated by four main players in terms of their market share performance; F5 Networks, Imperva, Penta Security Systems and Barracuda Networks. These vendors have not only built up a strong market presence in their respective regions but differentiated themselves through their WAF offerings, such as offering standalone and integrated WAF solutions. From a future growth perspective, the Frost IQ also recognises the efforts of NSFOCUS, Citrix Systems and Venustech to compete in the Asia Pacific WAF market, be it in product development or market expansion. Although their presence has been largely limited to local markets, smaller vendors such as Piolink, MonitorApp and Trinity Soft have been progressively increasing their business with hopes of regional expansion.

Rated 3.7 out of 5 by 534 reviewers.
Rated 2 out of 5 by JaimeC83 Coverage is great but the fumes are horrible . my bathroom isn't exactly well ventilated so I understand they will be more severe in this case however I went outside while dyeing and still could not stand them. They need to alter the formula to avoid such strong fumes. April 8, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5 by Laura P This is a word of warning to others that normally use 6R Light Auburn not to use Mousse Absolue 654 Light Auburn Brown and think your results will be similar to what you are used to. My result is a color darker than Dark Auburn. I will need to go to a professional to have my color corrected. I love the results of my regular shade 6R Light Auburn but the results of the Mousse Absolue, though shines and would be beautiful for someone looking for this dark color, is several shades darker than a light auburn.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Ronnee I have been home coloring my hair for over 5 years. I have tried several brands but L'Oreal seems to be the best at covering my grays. I am a natural brunette and often use medium brown shades. I decided to try the new Cool Darkest Brown. I was nervous at first that it would be too dark against my fair skin. I was VERY pleased with the color. It seemed very natural and I have received multiple compliments on it. It's been just over 3 weeks and the grays around my hairline and temples are starting to show but this seems to happen no matter what I try. The one negative for me was that the application process seemed messier than usual. I had many drips during application that fell on my face, clothes, counter, even the floor. I always put a towel around me and wear old clothes. Thank goodness I did otherwise they would have been ruined for sure. That is why I gave it 3 stars instead of 4. March 23, 2016

Whose business is it that the United Auto Workers is aggressively trying to recruit new dues-paying members in southern manufacturing facilities like Chattanooga's Volkswagen plant? The union and its allies would have you believe that it's nobody's business but theirs.
Wrong. It's everybody's business because the UAW is a deeply political entity, a font of manpower, money and support for countless left-wing causes, candidates, and policies, both locally and nationally, including the most economically ruinous idea to come out of Washington in a generation: Obamacare.
Labor unions in general are notoriously political, of course, but according to OpenSecrets.org the UAW "is one of the most politically active of all unions." In the 2012 election cycle alone, the union spent an astonishing $14.7 million. Contributions to individual candidates (almost all liberals) made up $1.7 million of that total, with an additional $11.5 million given to outside groups dedicated to various left-wing causes.
The UAW's BFF – Barack Obama – got a princely sum of $148,967 from the union in 2012. After the election, UAW chief Bob King bragged that he and his "progressive allies" had "scored a huge victory in November when we re-elected President Barack Obama."
As for Obama's health-care wrecking plan, the union admits on its website: "The UAW… strongly supports the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA), signed into law by President Obama in 2010," and has consistently opposed efforts to repeal or reform it.
So we know the UAW loves Obamacare. But how do the American people feel? According to a recent Pew Research Center/USA Today poll, 54 percent of Americans disapprove of the law." And no wonder – Obamacare is forcing millions to lose the insurance plans and/or doctors they relied on (despite the President's repeated promises to the contrary), or pay vastly more for the same or worse coverage.
Rep. Chuck Fleischmann is even one of Obamacare's unhappy victims. According to POLITICO, Mr.Fleischmann "…tweeted in frustration that the Obamacare website crashed three times as he tried to enroll last week. Once he was able to select a plan, he found that he will pay roughly $800 per month in premiums for his wife and three children — up from the roughly $450 that he is now paying under the Federal Employee Health Benefits program."
Fleischmann is not alone. According to a recent analysis by the Manhattan Institute, Obamacare will increase premiums in the average state by 41 percent." Tennessee will see an increase of 33 percent.
Physician Scott DesJarlais, who also represents Tennessee's 4th Congressional District, notes the toll this is taking on Tennessee families already struggling in a tight economy. "With median income in Tennessee hovering at $38,475, families simply cannot afford this drastic increase," DesJarlais wrote in the Columbia Daily Herald. Quite.
Big Labor – including the UAW – helped bring us Obamacare. And they're proud of it. But remember, when you or someone you know loses insurance or a doctor because of this destructive law, just remind yourself:
It's none of your business.

Great points by Matt Patterson about the UAW and Democrats. I would never buy a car made by the UAW. My last two have been a Camry made in Georgetown, Ky., and an Accord made in Marysville, Ohio, by non-union American workers. I am considering a Passat for my next purchase as long as VW workers keep the UAW out.
If you are Republican and buy a car made by the UAW you might as well write out a $100 check to the Democrats.
Douglas Jones

Yes, all things being equal, I think it's much more important to send thousands of dollars of profit back to Japan or Germany than less than a hundred bucks to Democratic union scum.
Herb Montgomery
I read your comments and reflected on all of my vehicle shopping over the years. I am amazed at how much a Big 3 Vehicle costs. I just priced out a Nissan Titan (Canton, MS) versus a comparably equipped F150 (Dearborn, MI). Both vehicles have a V8 and similar configurations, without many of the frills that are offered. It shocked me to see that, while the base model F150 prices out lower, when you put the engine and everything that the Titan comes with standard, the F150 jumps up "thousands of dollars" more.
I find your comments about rather sending an extra $100 to the Dems via the UAW vs sending thousands back to Japan or Germany a little off base. Looks like the thousands go to Detroit and the UAW and hundreds go to our domestic foreign auto manufacturers.
Does anyone remember the last time the UAW and VW worked together? At the plant in Pennsylvania? Strikes within six months and the plant closed after a decade. Herb would rather send the jobs and the dollars back to whence they came.
Tim Giordano
Mr. Patterson is absolutely correct. We all know that the UAW and the Democrat Party are joined at the hip and that the UAW was the major benefactor in the auto bailout in 2009, so it's no wonder they were in lock step with the Democrats regarding Obamacare.
The major question in my mind is this: Will inserting the UAW between VW and its workers result in VW producing better, more reliable cars that consumers will want to pay for? I think by anecdotal experience and checking out Consumer Report's ratings of all major auto manufacturers, the answer is "not likely."
Everyone I know that has been part of or worked around union shops has their favorite union story, myself included, as to how most labor unions destroy productivity and the quality of whatever good or service they are involved in. If VW wants to engage with its workers to solve problems, increase quality, raise employee morale, or whatever positive outcome they desire, the UAW is not, in my opinion, going to help facilitate those processes.
By the way, if the UAW is so great, why do they not want a secret ballot of the VW workers to opt for or against union representation? Help me out on that one Mr. Montgomery.
Jim Nelson
* * *
The VW plant in PA had many reasons for closing, besides just a union. This particular assembly plant produced the VW Golf, which by that time was slightly outdated, slightly overpriced, and still based on the old Rabbit design. VW sales had been slumping since the early 80's, largely because of VW's reluctance to change, especially at a time when when they were facing increased pressure from lower priced Japanese models. The US dollar had also been nosediving against the German mark, resulting in higher prices for all German goods.
Anyway, with their sales declining worldwide, VW decided to close the U.S. plant first, in order to keep more German workers employed.
Also, whether it's Nissan or any other foreign carmaker, they may pay us to assemble certain models, but the overall vehicle profit still heads to whatever country in which they are headquartered.

Yesterday was an exciting day for the teams over at 1401 Lawrence; the project has officially topped out! What exactly does that mean? The project has reached its final height, at 22-stories or 304 feet, with the last beam lifted to the top yesterday. I was very fortunate to be the event photographer thanks to the great folks at First Gulf, the developer of 1401 Lawrence.
The topping out ceremony consisted of four speeches made by (left to right) John Macneil, President of First Gulf, Steven Bangert, CEO of CoBiz Financial, Amy Hansen, Real Estate Department Partner at Polsinelli, and Albus Brooks of City Council, District 9. Polsinelli is the anchor tenant, and CoBiz will have a branch on the ground floor, as well as corporate offices on two other floors.
After the speeches, these four were the first to sign the beam which will be kept on the building for its lifetime.
Everybody at the topping out event had a chance to sign the beams, including myself. The team for the Beck Group, who have worked around the clock building 1401 Lawrence, posed for a photo right before the beams were hoisted up.
Once the crane hook came down, the beams were hooked on and lifted to the top.
Up they go!
1401 Lawrence is turning out to be a really great project. The most notable feature, the glass facade, acts like a mirror, reflecting Colorado's brilliant blue skies.
In a sea of masonry and earth tones, the all glass building brings such a great change around this area of Downtown Denver.
The aluminum and glass paneling is also making quick progress on the northeast side. Since this project is now topped out, what you see here is the final height of 1401 Lawrence.
With fourteen updates, it is almost time to bring 1401 Lawrence to a close. The next time we visit it will be when it is completed; around this fall. What a fantastic project!

New rules likely to improve advance notice
The new Republican majority in the House is expected to adopt rules changes today that offer greater transparency, but don't go as far as anticipated. The new rules would also allow lawmakers to carry mobile devices on the House floor.
New Speaker Rep. John Boehner (R-Ohio) pledged on several occasions last year that Republicans would put all legislation online and available to the public 72 hours before a vote. Republican leaders supported the idea in announcements in December about the upcoming rules changes.
However, the rules language approved on Jan. 4 by the House Republican Conference and set for a vote today does not include a provision to post all bills online 72 hours before a vote.
Congress must revamp campaign finance online reporting, watchdog says
OMB and private groups track congressional earmarks
Transparency advocates say the modified language of the proposed rules is likely to provide nearly as much transparency as the language that would require posting of bills online, although not directly or explicitly.
"It certainly is going to increase transparency," said John Wonderlich, policy director of the Sunlight Foundation. "It does not say the bills will go online for the public, but if the bills go to the minority members for three days, it is hard to imagine they would not be placed online."
A key aspect of the new rules provision states that bills would be considered "out of order" if brought up for consideration before the three days expire, Wonderlich added. Under longstanding rules of debate, it is very difficult to overcome such a point of order, he said, which serves to help enforce the three-day rule. However, Wonderlich also noted in his blog today that the three-day notice provision is "waivable" and "not iron-clad."
The new provision adds to what had been done in the previous Congress. Former Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) voluntarily posted many pieces of major legislation online three days in advance of a vote on a regular basis, including the health reform bill. Boehner said his goal was to expand that to cover all legislation.
The House routinely adopts new rules when convening every two years. Included in today's package is a measure that would allow electronic devices on the House floor, as long as they don't impair decorum.
The rules up for a vote today also include other transparency measures. "We're delighted by how many of those changes will be incorporated into the House rules," Wonderlich posted on Sunlight's blog today.
The changes include:

Southwestern Historical Quarterly
In his famous Texas letter to A. V. Brown, February 12, 1843
(published in March, 1844, in the newspapers), Andrew Jackson
disclosed some "secret history" calculated to aid and encourage the
Texas "re-annexation" cause:
Soon after my election, in 1829, it was made known to me by
Mr. Erwin [G. W. Erving], formerly our minister to the court of
Madrid, that whilst at that Court he had laid the foundation of a
treaty with Spain for the cession of the Floridas and the settlement
of the boundary of Louisiana, fixing the western limit of the latter
at the Rio Grande, agreeably to the understanding of France; that
he had written home to our government for powers to complete and
sign this negotiation; but that, instead of receiving such authority,
the negotiation was taken out of his hands and transferred to
Washington, and a new treaty was there concluded, by which the
Sabine, and not the Rio Grande, was recognized and established as
the boundary of Louisiana. Finding that these statements were
true, and that our government did really give up that important
territory, when it was at its option to retain it, I was filled with
astonishment. The right to the territory was obtained from France.
Spain stood ready to acknowledge it to the Rio Grande, and yet the
authority asked by our Minister to insert the true boundary was
not only withheld, but in lieu of it, a limit was adopted which
stripped us of the whole of the vast country.
In a letter in 1844 to W. B. Lewis, Jackson wrote, similarly:
In 1829-30 . . . Mr. Irwin . . . placed a copy in my hands
of the correspondence between him and the Spanish Minister at
Madrid, which shwd. that he had negotiated a treaty by which
Spain recognized the ancient limits of Louisiana to the Rio Grande
and ceded Florida for the sum paid.
Adams withheld authority to sign it. "I knew at once," adds
Jackson, "that Mr. Adams' object was to keep down the growing
political ascendancy of the South and West."
Erving had in 1829 (on December 17, apparently), at Jackson's
request, given the latter a written statement regarding his negoti-
ations in 1818 at Madrid.2 Erving referred in this "Summary" to
1James Parton, Life of Andrew Jackson, III, 658-660; Niles' Register
(Baltimore), LXVI, 70; R. M. McElroy, Winning of the Far West, 2-3.

I Will Follow You Into The Dark (aka my cover of an over-covered song)
Hey there, i'm looking for some pointers on my cover so I can improve it as i'll probably re-record it at some point (likely to be when I get my cast off). There are a few timing issues for sure, and maybe a few voice lessons are required but anything specific would be greatly appreciated!
Please let me know what you think, I look forward to hearing from you :)
Really good job, dude. Yes, there are a few timing issues but unfortunately I can't point out anything else :P
I think you have a really good voice, and although I've never heard this song before, I really want to now :)
Yeah, its cool.
Your voice is good pitch wise but sounds a little breathless and short. Just a few lessons with a singing coach could sort that.
I prefer a more finger style strumming pattern on this song - there's a few lessons on Youtube that cover this. (might not be possible with the cast on?)
I like this version to
and this
Nice one :cheers:
This is a really good cover, personally I would recommend lowering it a bit. You're hitting all the notes fine but as someone else said you sound a little out of breath. It might be that you're a bit out of your comfort zone. I really enjoyed this anyway!
This was particularly helpful, thanks :)
I'm giving the finger-style a go, my cast isn't messing it up too much.
Thanks for all the feedback guys! It has been most helpful so far.
Sorry for the late reply!
I really like the lyrics in this :) I can't really say much about your singing because I know absolutely nothing about it myself haha. Mad props for playing with a cast too, that takes some really motivation haha :) My playing is crippled by a cut thumb or finger, so I can't imagine what a cast you do :P Hope that all works out soon for you!
Nice song! I enjoyed it!

The man who was charged with inducing panic after allegedly making threats on his Facebook page after the Connecticut school shooting in December may have his case dismissed.
The state filed a motion in Medina Municipal Court Jan. 10 to dismiss the inducing panic count. There is a hearing scheduled for Jan. 25 in front of Judge Dale Chase.
Joseph W. Resovsky, 20, of Columbia Station, reportedly posted while at work in Medina. The statements included: "im so happy some one shot up all those little (expletive) VIVA LA SCHOOL SHOOTINGS!!! -Juggalotus-" on his Facebook page on Dec. 14. He also listed the Sandy Hook shooter as his "idle."
He was charged with inducing panic in Medina Municipal Court and pleaded not guilty Jan. 9.
Resovsky's case has caught the attention of the Ohio ACLU, who provided him with attorneys. Legal Director James Hardiman said they became involved because the case concerns free speech.
"This has the first amendment all over it," he said. "You have a right to speak your mind. This is not a criminal offense, it's constitutionally protected speech. There was no threat of serious bodily harm."
Resovsky had formerly lived in Medina and was still listed as such on his Facebook profile, and still works in the city, so Medina police questioned him regarding the comments. He turned himself in Dec. 15, and was released on bond.
Resovsky reportedly told police that he had never meant for that comment to offend anyone, and that he was trying to make a point that people post horrible things on Facebook all the time and nobody says anything about it.

Arjen posted a good note about MyISAM concurrent-insert features, though I should mention concurrent-insert can be cause of
scalablity and peformance problems on SMP boxes, especially on queries processing range-queries. The reason of problems is POSIX read-write locks, which are used to protect key_buffer from concurrent changes and called for each processed row. More info you can get from my UC2006 talk, in short on main platforms (Linux, Solaris, Windows) rw-locks have a bad implementation and too many calls cause waste of CPU in user-space (Solaris) or kernel-space (Linux).
Some results for MyISAM table, query
SELECT id FROM sbtest WHERE id BETWEEN N AND N+20000
, id – primary key.
Boxes: Sun V40z, Solaris 10, 4 x Dual Core Opteron @ 2.2GHz (8 logical cpu), 16GB of RAM, StorEdge 3310
and Quadxeon, RedHat AS 3, 2.4.21-15.Elsmp, 4 x Intel(R) XEON(TM) MP CPU 2.00GHz, 4GB of RAM, SATA RAID 10
The results in queries per sec (more is better)
with enabled concurrent-insert
|Sun V40z
with enabled concurrent-insert
|Sun V40z
So if you are using range-queries and doing INSERT not often than disabling concurrent-insert with –skip-concurrent-insert can improve MyISAM performance.
As I said the reason of bad scalability is rw-locks and currently MySQL developers are working on CPU-depended rw-locks implementstation, this will be available in MySQL 5.1 – 5.2
GitHub, MyISAM, Operating Systems
Hi Vadim!
Great info. Could you by any chance give us a heads up on what the "tipping point" is where you see scalability issues with concurrent insert? Is there a specific % read/write where MyISAM starts to have trouble, or does the situation normally occur when there is a huge range condition like the one above (20000 rows)?
It happens even with only SELECT queries.
The problem is pthread_rwlock_rdlock is called for each scanned rows – that is the more rows we are processing the problem
is worse.
I don't have exactly number of rows – but I saw the same problem for 10.000 rows.
Good idea for benchmarks to check when the problem popups – I will try it soon.
How does the "concurrent-insert = 2" feature described by Arjen affect the outcome of the above benchmark ?
I did not test concurrent-insert = 2, but looking at source code – it changes SELECTs code in no way. So the results will be the same.
Which soft was used in this benchmark?
I usually use sysbench (http://sysbench.sf.net).
What is the negative impact to turn the concurrent_insert off? Will it make insert waits much longer? Is there any bug or issue related to turn off this default feature?
Will turning off the feature help queries which have no insert on the same table at the same time?
My system has update:Insert:Select ratio is 3:1.5:1 so the db is write more than read.
There are several points:
1. Possible negative effect – your INSERTS will be a bit longer. I don't know any bugs with disabled concurrent insert.
2. If you use only point selects, or selects that retieve only several rows – I don't think concurrent=off will help you much – perhaps otherwise.
3. if you use select retrieves many rows – you definitely should use concurrent=off
4. if your database is more write that read – then I again don't think concurrent is important for you – most time
tables are in WRITE lock.
5. But better way – test it – for example you can take mysql with patched query log and analyze execution time of queries with concurrent insert = off and on.

Hi man,
i have concurrent-insert=2 set….how would the positively impact the performance? i have a torrent tracker (legal content ofcourse) with heavy php and mysql visits daily…and some spikes.
Any one know how to run mySQL from the visual studio 2008. I tried by building the mySQL source code and it worked fine. But problem is how to run it. So if any one can provide step by step procedure its great.
OK, I've never mucked much with this setting, or ever actually, but the stock site I manage is about 170 gig on drive, daily does millions of inserts, updates, selects, and a few 1000 deletes. Some of the larger tables are well over 100,000,000 rows of data, that are part of the daily changes. I have noticed since more and more data is being written, changed, I'm getting slow query issues reading and writing. Do you think if I were to disabled concurrent insert this would help or worsen the select from time issues (the tables are Primary Key index ID,Date, and indexed Date, with the Select statements always:
Select from table where ID = ###### Order by Date
with sometimes
AND Date >= 20100101 and Date <= 20110101 (for ranges of between specific dates)
