> When guest network / VLAN is defined in CloudStack, a separate record is created in the cloud.user_ip_address table for each address in the range, even if it isn't really allocated.
> As a result, if a very wide subnet is defined (say, Class B), then the table contains at least 65534 records.
> On a system with 5 such Class B VLANs defined, the size of the table grew to more than 327670 records. This caused mysqld to spend about 95-99% of its time in Waiting state and efficiently stuck the CloudStack.
> top - 11:58:43 up  2:25,  3 users,  load average: 2.91, 2.71, 2.21
> Tasks: 145 total,   1 running, 144 sleeping,   0 stopped,   0 zombie
> Cpu0  :  1.8%us,  0.4%sy,  0.0%ni,  1.8%id, 95.7%wa,  0.0%hi,  0.4%si,  0.0%st
> When I tried to delete such network, the operation lasted about an hour.
> It obviously doesn't seem to be limitation of MySQL itself; I suspect that CloudStack's algorythms working with this table are pretty inefficient and aren't built to the case of huge number of addresses. Am I right?
