## Speed up warden for faster importing of large sql dumps. 1) Add the innodb options to the `warden/environments/magento2.base.yml` docker-compose YML file. 2) Restart warden environment `warden env down && warden sync stop && warden env up -d && warden sync start` 3) Import the .sql file with `warden db import`. 4) Remove options & restart warden enviornment once import completed. ### Why these settings * `innodb_buffer_pool_size` : Will cache frequently read data * `innodb_log_buffer_size` : Larger buffer reduces write I/O to Transaction Logs * `innodb_log_file_size` : Larger log file reduces checkpointing and write I/O * `innodb_write_io_threads` : Service Write Operations to .ibd files. According to MySQL Documentation on Configuring the Number of Background InnoDB I/O Threads, each thread can handle up to 256 pending I/O requests. Default for MySQL is 4, 8 for Percona Server. Max is 64. * `innodb_flush_log_at_trx_commit` : Not worried about data lost prevention steps. ### Testing of performance: With a 32GB .sql file from a Magento 1.x instance, importing with defaults would take days (avg 100KiB/s transfer rate) according to `pv` however with the above in place the import time eta of `pv` is now only 10 hours with an avg 750KiB/s transfer rate) * Reference: https://dba.stackexchange.com/questions/83125/mysql-any-way-to-import-a-huge-32-gb-sql-dump-faster *NOTE*, Strict mode only set to OFF for other non performance reason.
