Performance tuning script for MySQL – Command-line Mysql Tuner

What is MySQL performance tuning and what does it mean ?

MySQL has a lot of variables in its configuration. We can edit and set/alter variables to our requirements on our server. We can improve the MySQL performance by varying those values in configuration file. A lot of methods and shell scripts are available for tuning your MySQL server. Here I am explaining the installation and usage of one shell script for tuning the MySQL.

This performance tuning shell script will help you to optimize your MySQL server on a huge traffic cPanel server.
