Thread Cache Monitor
Threads CreatedConnectionsThread Cache SizeHit RatioWarnings
2112278472860%The ideal situation is to get Threads Created as close as possible to Thread Cache Size. So no new connections are having to wait for new thread allocation. Stay as close to a 99% hit ratio as you can as this will reduce bottlenecks in your caching. Adjust your Thread Cache Size until this is achieved. You can set your Thread Cache Size on the fly by doing "SET GLOBAL thread_cache_size=N". Where N is the desired size of your Thread Cache. For additional information on the SET command please read SET Syntax

Memory Monitor
Minimum Memory Needed : 1418944504
This number is a calculation of the maximum amount of memory your mySQL instance will consume on your server . It is a sum of all the caches and buffers that would benefit by not using swap or not having to goto the HD. Having a number larger than your total available amount of memory will result in swapping.
Min_memory_needed = key_buffer + innodb_buffer_pool + innodb_log_buffer + innodb_additional_mem_pool + net_buffer + max_connections * (read_buffer + join_buffer + sort_buffer + myisam_sort_buffer + thread_stack + tmp_table_size + read_rnd_buffer)

Select_full_join6829A high value here means that MySQL is not using indexes and is therefore taking longer to build a result set. The problem can be fixed by indexing important fields of the join.Enable the Slow Query Log and use Explain to examine your queries.
Select_scan1276910A high value here can be an indication of bottlenecks in your server optimization. This happens because Mysql is not using the indexes for the tables and so is having to do extra work for inefficient queries. Enable the Slow Query Log and use Explain to examine your queries.
