If I lowered it bel= ow the current allocation, it'd whack out a bunch of cached data to get within= the new setting (maxvnodes problem notwithstanding). In 12, it seems I can't lower it below the current allocation. In practice, this means one will rarely be able to lower it without rebooting (since one wouldn't be trying to lower it on a running system unless it was already so large it was causing a problem). It was nice to be able to change it to make more room for hungry things like InnoDB without rebooting. Is that intentional? I guess there may be a good reason why, or maybe it ba= cks off automatically better than in 11? --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
