Slow Query Logs
Posted by: Joel @ 2010-04-24 15:08:34
If you login and you notice you have a large amount of Slow Queries, this may be due to not having indexes on your table. Our system is configured to log queries not using indexes into the slow query logs. If this is the case, analyze your queries, add indexes where appropriate and this should aleviate those errors. If you don't know where to put them, feel free to email us.

New Site Design
Posted by: Joel @ 2009-12-29 09:07:45
Getting ready to roll out the new layout very soon. Will have new graphing functionality and reports for any slow queries, or queries you are using that dont have indexes. Remember to index your tables for optimization, if you use a column in a WHERE statement or ORDER BY Statement make sure to ALTER TABLE -tablename- ADD KEY (column_name). We will be implementing FusionCharts very soon as well for some added look and feel
