Re: Getting Shared Memory to work on Windows

Frequently questions on this forum are of this sort. "MySQL is running slowly. I see that X might help. I am having trouble with X; please help me." The problem is that the question includes only the 3rd sentence. And the solution to their _real_ problem (speed), is Y.

If you want to use "shared memory" for speed, I can't figure how it could help, and will direct you toward software solutions instead of hardware.

If you want to use "shared memory" to allow two instances of MySQL to "share" something, I would resoundingly explain why that cannot work. (The answer has to do with internals of MySQL, not shared memory, per se.

If you want to use "shared memory" for some other reason, I might discuss something else.

If you want to use "shared memory" because it exists, then I am clueless. Sorry, I can't help you.
