Description:
advisor for query_cache...
threshold ist set to alert for 75%
query cache makes a query about 15% slower
as soon as I have a ratio bigger than 1 : 1 (hits to insert) it should be fine
which is 50%
last customer we had often short below 75% and it was alerting whole the time.
so I think the threasholds are not too god!

How to repeat:
dito

Suggested fix:
info: >> 1 : 1 is fine
warning around 1 : 1 can be not fine (+/- 10%?)
alert  << 1 : 1 can be bad.

Based on Oli's input and in consultation with Support (Mark Leith), we're changing the thresholds from:

    info: 95, warn: 85, crit: 75

to:

    info: 60, warn: 50, crit: 40

Committed revision 9122.

Verified new thresholds in advisor build 1.3.0.9137.

Moved to 'Documenting' so MC can make the appropriate notes in the 1.3 docs (if any), reminding him that he should move them back to 'Verified' with a target of 2.0.

Setting to "verified" and "target" 2.0 as requested.

Also added an entry to the 1.3 changelog:

The alert thresholds for the Query Cache Advisor were changed:

This was fixed in 2.0 at the same time it was fixed in 1.3, so please re-test with the latest 2.0 stuff.
