Re: All Innodb tables using seperate ibd, but ibdata1 still being modified?

Sorry, the way to shrink ibdata1 is painful and time consuming:

0. stop writing to the tables
1. mysqldump all the tables
2. stop mysqld
3. remove ibdata1
4. change the setting (my.cnf or my.ini) to something small, like 30M;autoextend
5. start mysqld; this will rebuild ibdata1 (at 30M)
6. reload all the tables

If you are currently doing mysqldumps, then there is no need to capture the .ibd files. Note, however, that stored procedures, view, triggers, etc may not be included in the dumps.
