<div style="text-align: left;">The log file at the above moment is some 111,529KB, the rolled over log file about the same size.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br></div><div style="text-align: left;">What I am wondering about is</div>
<div style="text-align: left;"><ol><li>when does the roll-over take place? </li><li>what role does the dump_log_write_threshold parameter play here? (It is set to 1,000 in these tests)</li><li>why is the previous version deleted before the current one is rolled over? (GFS would appear to be the algorithm which should be used in order not to lose anything)</li>
<li>the new version of the log file is created with a very small initial allocation? Is there a way to influence this size? (yes, I know, modern file systems should be able to happily expand very fast, and I have asked this question before. However, the time taken to 'rename' the current to previous and create a new log causes quite significant waves on the client side. These are noticeable even to the human eye.)</li>
