max_connections
并发连接数目最大，超过这个值就会自动恢复，出了问题能自动解决
thread_cache
没找到具体说明，不过设置为32后 20天才创建了400多个线程 而以前一天就创建了上千个线程 所以还是有用的
thread_concurrency
#设置为你的cpu数目x2,例如，只有一个cpu,那么thread_concurrency=2
#有2个cpu,那么thread_concurrency=4

# installation this directory is /var/lib/mysql) or

#
# In this file, you can use all long options that a program supports.
# If you want to know which options a program supports, run the program
# with the "--help" option.

# Replication Slave (comment out master section to use this)
#
# To configure this host as a replication slave, you can choose between
# two methods :
#
# 1) Use the CHANGE MASTER TO command (fully described in our manual) -
# the syntax is:
#
# CHANGE MASTER TO MASTER_HOST=, MASTER_PORT=,
# MASTER_USER=, MASTER_PASSWORD= ;
#
# where you replace , , by quoted strings and
# by the master's port number (3306 by default).
#
# Example:
#
# CHANGE MASTER TO MASTER_HOST='125.564.12.1', MASTER_PORT=3306,
# MASTER_USER='joe', MASTER_PASSWORD='secret';
#
# OR
#
# 2) Set the variables below. However, in case you choose this method, then
# start replication for the first time (even unsuccessfully, for example
# if you mistyped the password in master-password and the slave fails to
# connect), the slave will create a master.info file, and any later
# change in this file to the variables' values below will be ignored and
# overridden by the content of the master.info file, unless you shutdown
# the slave server, delete master.info and restart the slaver server.
# For that reason, you may want to leave the lines below untouched
# (commented) and instead use CHANGE MASTER TO (see above)
#
# required unique id between 2 and 2^32 - 1
# (and different from the master)
# defaults to 2 if master-host is set
# but will not function as a slave if omitted
#server-id = 2
#
# The replication master for this slave - required
#master-host =

# to the master - required

# the master - required

补充：
优化table_cachetable_cache指定表高速缓存的大小。每当MySQL访问一个表时，如果在表缓冲区中还有空间，该表就被打开并放入其中，这样可以更快地访问表内容。通过检查峰值时间的状态值Open_tables和Opened_tables，可以决定是否需要增加 table_cache的值。如果你发现open_tables等于table_cache，并且opened_tables在不断增长，那么你就需要增加table_cache的值了（上述状态值可以使用SHOW STATUS LIKE ‘Open%tables’获得）。注意，不能盲目地把table_cache设置成很大的值。如果设置得太高，可能会造成文件描述符不足，从而造成性能不稳定或者连接失败。对于有1G内存的机器，推荐值是128－256。
