Hi there, I have a wordops server based on ubuntu 20.04.4 with php74 on a optmized CPU server with 32GB and 16 cores. I have installed 25 sites and I have around 100k page views daily.
I´m getting problems when a specific site uploads content which gets a lot of concurrent traffic, server is down or can´t connect to database. I launched mysqltuner and there is a few things that I can´t get it solved yet, this is mysqltuner recommendations.
Variables to adjust:
*** MySQL's maximum memory usage is dangerously high ***
*** Add RAM before increasing MySQL buffer variables ***
join_buffer_size (> 256.0K, or always use indexes with JOINs)
Anyone could help on how to get that recommendations ready? This is the full mysqltuner analysis:

-------- Recommendations ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
General recommendations:
MySQL was started within the last 24 hours - recommendations may be inaccurate
Reduce your overall MySQL memory footprint for system stability
Dedicate this server to your database for highest performance.
We will suggest raising the 'join_buffer_size' until JOINs not using indexes are found.
See https://dev.mysql.com/doc/internals/en/join-buffer-size.html
(specially the conclusions at the bottom of the page).
Temporary table size is already large - reduce result set size
Reduce your SELECT DISTINCT queries without LIMIT clauses
Consider installing Sys schema from https://github.com/mysql/mysql-sys for MySQL
Variables to adjust:
*** MySQL's maximum memory usage is dangerously high ***
*** Add RAM before increasing MySQL buffer variables ***
join_buffer_size (> 256.0K, or always use indexes with JOINs)

Hi there,
The
MySQL's maximum memory usage is dangerously high
indicates that the values that you’ve defined in yourmy.cnf
file are too high. You would need to reduce them a little bit otherwise MySQL can consume all of the available RAM on your server and crash.Feel free to share your
my.cnf
file here and I could try to advise you further.Another option is to try out Releem:
https://releem.com/
Releem is a MySQL performance tuning as a service and they’ve just released a free plan. It is much more user friendly compared to the MySQL tuner script and they also provide you with the config file that you should use, so you don’t have to come up with the values yourself.
Here is a quick tutorial on how to set it up:

Hope that this helps!
Best,
Bobby
