说明：mysql 5.6、5.7默认启动占用内存400多M，如果是vps等小内存应用，mysql内存占用率明显偏高,将会导致崩溃，mysql会自动停止。
编辑/etc/my.cnf文件在[mysqld]下增加或修改如下参数
performance_schema_max_table_instances = 200
table_definition_cache = 100
table_open_cache = 100。这个三个参数，调低值后内存能明显减小，现在mysql使用内存约60MB左右，就大大降低默认使用的内存。
进一步调整参数
innodb_buffer_pool_size=2M这个三个参数可以调小。 再进一步调整： mysql 5.6默认启用performance_schema，占用很多内存，可以禁用。
performance_schema = OFF完整配置文件如下，内存占用到22M
我的mysql配置如下，如果你使用的centos6 64位，并且是yum安装的（一键脚本)可以自己按照如下照抄，我的是centos6 64位系统
先ssh登录服务器或VPS，在vi /etc/my.cnf
