I have a 8-core MySQL server with 32 GB of RAM, holding 40 MyISAM tables (total: ~4GB of data). Since the databases size is several times smaller than the available memory, how can I make full usage of my server's resources? 1. What settings should I attempt configure in my.cnf? 2. Can I force data + indexes to stay in memory?
