Re: Converting Heap to MyISAM issue

Temporary tables use the minimum of the two values, 8GB in your case.

MEMORY tables use max_heap_table_size, which is 8GB in your case.

How much RAM do you have? I would not use 8GB for either setting unless I had a lot more than 8GB of RAM.

Setting the GLOBAL setting, then performing the conversion in the _same_ connection is useless... When you _connect_, the GLOBAL values are copied into the SESSION values. Then, the SESSION values control the limits for your actions.

How big is the table? What is the operation being performed? I would expect it to be
ALTER TABLE foo ENGINE=MyISAM;
Please provide all the details of the conversion.

8G and 16G are much too high for those settings.
