Runtime Configuration

The behaviour of these functions is affected by settings in php.ini.

Here's a short explanation of the configuration directives.

mysqlnd_qc.enable_qc integer

Enables or disables the plugin. If disabled the extension will not plug into mysqlnd to proxy internal mysqlnd C API calls.

mysqlnd_qc.ttl integer

Default Time-to-Live (TTL) for cache entries in seconds.

mysqlnd_qc.cache_by_default integer

Cache all queries regardless if they begin with the SQL hint that enables caching of a query or not. Storage handler cannot overrule the setting. It is evaluated by the core of the plugin.

mysqlnd_qc.cache_no_table integer

Whether to cache queries with no table name in any of columns meta data of their result set, for example, SELECT SLEEP(1), SELECT NOW(), SELECT SUBSTRING().

mysqlnd_qc.use_request_time integer

Use PHP global request time to avoid gettimeofday() system calls? If using APC storage handler it should be set to the value of apc.use_request_time , if not warnings will be generated.

mysqlnd_qc.time_statistics integer

Collect run time and store time statistics using gettimeofday() system call? Data will be collected only if you also set mysqlnd_qc.collect_statistics = 1,

mysqlnd_qc.collect_statistics integer

Collect statistics for mysqlnd_qc_get_core_stats? Does not influence storage handler statistics! Handler statistics can be an integral part of the handler internal storage format. Therefore, collection of some handler statistics cannot be disabled.

mysqlnd_qc.collect_statistics-log-file integer

If mysqlnd_qc.collect_statistics and mysqlnd_qc.collect_statistics_log_file are set, the plugin will dump statistics into the specified log file at every 10th web request during PHP request shutdown. The log file needs to be writable by the web server user.

Since 1.1.0.

mysqlnd_qc.collect_query_trace integer

Collect query back traces?

mysqlnd_qc.query_trace_bt_depth integer

Maximum depth/level of a query code backtrace.

mysqlnd_qc.ignore_sql_comments integer

Whether to remove SQL comments from a query string before hashing it to generate a cache key. Disable if you do not want two statemts such as SELECT /*my_source_ip=123*/ id FROM test and SELECT /*my_source_ip=456*/ id FROM test to refer to the same cache entry.

Since 1.1.0.

mysqlnd_qc.slam_defense integer

Activates handler based slam defense (cache stampeding protection) if available. Supported by Default and APC storage handler

mysqlnd_qc.slam_defense_ttl integer

TTL for stale cache entries which are served while another client updates the entries. Supported by APC storage handler.

mysqlnd_qc.collect_normalized_query_trace integer

Collect aggregated normalized query traces? The setting has no effect by default. You compile the extension using the define NORM_QUERY_TRACE_LOG to make use of the setting.

mysqlnd_qc.std_data_copy integer

Default storage handler: copy cached wire data? EXPERIMENTAL – use default setting!

mysqlnd_qc.apc_prefix string

The APC storage handler stores data in the APC user cache. The setting sets a prefix to be used for cache entries.

mysqlnd_qc.memc_server string

MEMCACHE storage handler: memcache server host.

mysqlnd_qc.memc_port integer

MEMCACHE storage handler: memcached server port.

mysqlnd_qc.sqlite_data_file string

sqlite storage handler: data file. Any setting but :memory: may be of little practical value.
