PHp Mysql OPtimization using slow-log-query

hi ther i'm still working on mysql performance currently i start to check the -log-slow-query command on mysql server.

it returns me the next result:

Looks like takes much time on connections from php to mysql, how could i fix that?

I'm finding your log to be more confusing than helpful; none of those queries look particularly complex, but then again, I don't know what your table structure looks like, how much server load you have, or how many records you have in your tables. If the queries themselves are actually running really slowly, you might need to look into whether or not your tables are properly indexed. If you google about mysql indexing you can find a ton of information, and if you really want to get into it, check out this ebook: http://sql-performance-explained.com/

I also noticed there's a few queries using ORDER BY and LIMIT statements together. In that case, you should look at the relationship those two command have together, and how you can optimize those types of queries. Check this site out for more information:

http://www.mysqlperformanceblog.com/2006/09/01/order-by-limit-performance-optimization/

But if it's not the queries, perhaps, it's as you suggest that MySQL is having a hard time creating a connection to the database. If you have a lot of users, it could be that you have too few available connections, and you need to increase the number of connections MySQL allows concurrently. Look at here for how to do that:

http://rackerhacker.com/2007/01/24/increase-mysql-connection-limit/

On the other you, might want to consider using persistent connection in your PHP application, if it's taking a long time for it to connect to the database.

http://php.net/manual/en/features.persistent-connections.php

These can reduce the amount of time PHP spends connecting to the database. Alternatively, if you are already using persistent connection, then it could be that there is an error in your PHP code that is creating a connection, starting a transaction, but then holding on to it, and hogging the connection, leaving no available connection for other users. Make sure you're using proper error handling when your PHP app is interfacing with the database.

Again, these are just some of my best guesses based on what you've shown. I hope it gets you going in the right direction.

I have inherited a horrible PHP backend that has bugs that make it query the DB hundreds of times (up to 600 for the sites index page). The client won't pay to do the neccesary backend rewrite, but I wanted to speed things up.

The queries are all small, on one smallish database, but the backend connects and selects a DB for every single query.

I wrote the following quick code to minimize this part of the traffic:

function DBConnectOnce($dbhost, $dbname, $dbuser, $dbpasswd) {
    $GLOBALS['dbrecord_Debug'] = ($dbDebug == 'true'); // @TODO better way to handle this within the class?
    if(isset($GLOBALS['DBRECORDCONFIGSTATUS'])&&$GLOBALS['DBRECORDCONFIGSTATUS']==$dbuser.$dbname.$dbhost){//check to see if the connectionon the proper type has been made.
        $dblink=unserialize($GLOBALS['DBRECORDCONNECTION']);
    } else {
        $GLOBALS['DBRECORDCONFIGSTATUS']=$dbuser.$dbname.$dbhost;
        $GLOBALS['DBRECORDCONNECTION']=serialize($dblink = mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpasswd));

        if($dblink === false) {
            trigger_error("DBConnectOnce: Unable to connect to database server - ".mysql_error(), E_USER_ERROR);
        }

        if(!mysql_select_db($dbname)) {
            trigger_error("DBConnectOnce: Unable to select database - $dbname at $dbhost", E_USER_ERROR);
        }
    }
return $dblink;

}

It uses globals to check what type of DB connection you've already made, and use it if it matches the type of DB connection you need to make.
