MySQL性能参数汇总

在MySQL中可以使用SHOW STATUS语句来查看MySQL数据库的性能参数，我们可以根据这些性能参数来了解MySQL数据库的状态，并制定合理的优化策略。

执行show status;可以查看所有的性能参数，执行show status like '参数名称';可以查看指定参数名称的性能参数，一般某一类参数都有相同的前缀。

MySQL Server Status Variables

The MySQL server maintains many status variables that provide information about its operation. You can view these variables and their values by using the SHOW [GLOBAL | SESSION] STATUS statement (see Section 13.7.6.35, “SHOW STATUS Syntax”). The optional GLOBAL keyword aggregates the values over all connections, and SESSION shows the values for the current connection.

mysql> SHOW GLOBAL STATUS;

Many status variables are reset to 0 by the FLUSH STATUS statement.

This section provides a description of each status variable. For a status variable summary, see Section 5.1.6, “Server Status Variable Reference”.

The status variables have the following meanings.

Aborted_clients

The number of connections that were aborted because the client died without closing the connection properly. See Section B.4.2.10, “Communication Errors and Aborted Connections”.

Aborted_connects

The number of failed attempts to connect to the MySQL server. See Section B.4.2.10, “Communication Errors and Aborted Connections”.

For additional connection-related information, check the Connection_errors_xxx status variables and the host_cache table.

Binlog_cache_disk_use

The number of transactions that used the temporary binary log cache but that exceeded the value of binlog_cache_size and used a temporary file to store statements from the transaction.

The number of nontransactional statements that caused the binary log transaction cache to be written to disk is tracked separately in the Binlog_stmt_cache_disk_use status variable.

Acl_cache_items_count

The number of cached privilege objects. Each object is the privilege combination of a user and its active roles.

Binlog_cache_use

The number of transactions that used the binary log cache.

Binlog_stmt_cache_disk_use

The number of nontransaction statements that used the binary log statement cache but that exceeded the value of binlog_stmt_cache_size and used a temporary file to store those statements.

Binlog_stmt_cache_use

The number of nontransactional statements that used the binary log statement cache.

Bytes_received

The number of bytes received from all clients.

Bytes_sent

The number of bytes sent to all clients.

Caching_sha2_password_rsa_public_key

The public key used by the caching_sha2_password authentication plugin for RSA key pair-based password exchange. The value is nonempty only if the server successfully initializes the private and public keys in the files named by the caching_sha2_password_private_key_path and caching_sha2_password_public_key_path system variables. The value of Caching_sha2_password_rsa_public_key comes from the latter file.

Com_xxx

The Com_xxx statement counter variables indicate the number of times each xxx statement has been executed. There is one status variable for each type of statement. For example, Com_delete and Com_update count DELETE and UPDATE statements, respectively. Com_delete_multi and Com_update_multi are similar but apply to DELETE and UPDATE statements that use multiple-table syntax.

The discussion at the beginning of this section indicates how to relate these statement-counting status variables to other such variables.

All of the Com_stmt_xxx variables are increased even if a prepared statement argument is unknown or an error occurred during execution. In other words, their values correspond to the number of requests issued, not to the number of requests successfully completed.

The Com_stmt_xxx status variables are as follows:

Com_stmt_prepare

Com_stmt_execute

Com_stmt_fetch

Com_stmt_send_long_data

Com_stmt_reset

Com_stmt_close

Those variables stand for prepared statement commands. Their names refer to the COM_xxx command set used in the network layer. In other words, their values increase whenever prepared statement API calls such as mysql_stmt_prepare(), mysql_stmt_execute(), and so forth are executed. However, Com_stmt_prepare, Com_stmt_execute and Com_stmt_close also increase for PREPARE, EXECUTE, or DEALLOCATE PREPARE, respectively. Additionally, the values of the older statement counter variables Com_prepare_sql, Com_execute_sql, and Com_dealloc_sql increase for the PREPARE, EXECUTE, and DEALLOCATE PREPARE statements. Com_stmt_fetch stands for the total number of network round-trips issued when fetching from cursors.

Com_stmt_reprepare indicates the number of times statements were automatically reprepared by the server, for example, after metadata changes to tables or views referred to by the statement. A reprepare operation increments Com_stmt_reprepare, and also Com_stmt_prepare.

Com_explain_other indicates the number of EXPLAIN FOR CONNECTION statements executed. See Section 8.8.4, “Obtaining Execution Plan Information for a Named Connection”.

Com_change_repl_filter indicates the number of CHANGE REPLICATION FILTER statements executed.

Compression

Whether the client connection uses compression in the client/server protocol.

As of MySQL 8.0.18, this status variable is deprecated. It will be removed in a future MySQL version. See Legacy Connection Compression Configuration.

Compression_algorithm

The name of the compression algorithm in use for the current connection to the server. The value can be any algorithm permitted in the value of the protocol_compression_algorithms system variable. For example, the value is uncompressed if the connection does not use compression, or zlib if the connection uses the zlib algorithm.

For more information, see Section 4.2.6, “Connection Compression Control”.

This variable was added in MySQL 8.0.18.

Compression_level

The compression level in use for the current connection to the server. The value is 6 for zlib connections (the default zlib algorithm compression level), 1 to 22 for zstd connections, and 0 for uncompressed connections.

For more information, see Section 4.2.6, “Connection Compression Control”.

This variable was added in MySQL 8.0.18.

Connection_errors_xxx

These variables provide information about errors that occur during the client connection process. They are global only and represent error counts aggregated across connections from all hosts. These variables track errors not accounted for by the host cache (see Section 8.12.4.2, “DNS Lookup Optimization and the Host Cache”), such as errors that are not associated with TCP connections, occur very early in the connection process (even before an IP address is known), or are not specific to any particular IP address (such as out-of-memory conditions).

Connection_errors_accept

The number of errors that occurred during calls to accept() on the listening port.

Connection_errors_internal

The number of connections refused due to internal errors in the server, such as failure to start a new thread or an out-of-memory condition.

Connection_errors_max_connections

The number of connections refused because the server max_connections limit was reached.

Connection_errors_peer_address

The number of errors that occurred while searching for connecting client IP addresses.

Connection_errors_select

The number of errors that occurred during calls to select() or poll() on the listening port. (Failure of this operation does not necessarily means a client connection was rejected.)

Connection_errors_tcpwrap

The number of connections refused by the libwrap library.

Connections

The number of connection attempts (successful or not) to the MySQL server.

Created_tmp_disk_tables

The number of internal on-disk temporary tables created by the server while executing statements.

If an internal temporary table is created initially as an in-memory table but becomes too large, MySQL automatically converts it to an on-disk table. The maximum size for in-memory temporary tables is the minimum of the tmp_table_size and max_heap_table_size values. If Created_tmp_disk_tables is large, you may want to increase the tmp_table_size or max_heap_table_size value to lessen the likelihood that internal temporary tables in memory will be converted to on-disk tables.

You can compare the number of internal on-disk temporary tables created to the total number of internal temporary tables created by comparing the values of the Created_tmp_disk_tables and Created_tmp_tables variables.

See also Section 8.4.4, “Internal Temporary Table Use in MySQL”.

Created_tmp_files

How many temporary files mysqld has created.

Created_tmp_tables

The number of internal temporary tables created by the server while executing statements.

See also Section 8.4.4, “Internal Temporary Table Use in MySQL”.

Each invocation of the SHOW STATUS statement uses an internal temporary table and increments the global Created_tmp_tables value.

Current_tls_ca

The active ssl_ca value in the SSL context that the server uses for new connections. This context value may differ from the current ssl_ca system variable value if the system variable has been changed but ALTER INSTANCE RELOAD TLS has not subsequently been executed to reconfigure the SSL context from the context-related system variable values and update the corresponding status variables. (This potential difference in values applies to each corresponding pair of context-related system and status variables. See Server-Side Runtime Configuration for Encrypted Connections.)

This variable was added in MySQL 8.0.16.

Current_tls_capath

The active ssl_capath value in the SSL context that the server uses for new connections. For notes about the relationship between this status variable and its corresponding system variable, see the description of Current_tls_ca.

This variable was added in MySQL 8.0.16.

Current_tls_cert

The active ssl_cert value in the SSL context that the server uses for new connections. For notes about the relationship between this status variable and its corresponding system variable, see the description of Current_tls_ca.

This variable was added in MySQL 8.0.16.

Current_tls_cipher

The active ssl_cipher value in the SSL context that the server uses for new connections. For notes about the relationship between this status variable and its corresponding system variable, see the description of Current_tls_ca.

This variable was added in MySQL 8.0.16.

Current_tls_ciphersuites

The active tls_ciphersuites value in the SSL context that the server uses for new connections. For notes about the relationship between this status variable and its corresponding system variable, see the description of Current_tls_ca.

This variable was added in MySQL 8.0.16.

Current_tls_crl

The active ssl_crl value in the SSL context that the server uses for new connections. For notes about the relationship between this status variable and its corresponding system variable, see the description of Current_tls_ca.

This variable was added in MySQL 8.0.16.

Current_tls_crlpath

The active ssl_crlpath value in the SSL context that the server uses for new connections. For notes about the relationship between this status variable and its corresponding system variable, see the description of Current_tls_ca.

This variable was added in MySQL 8.0.16.

Current_tls_key

The active ssl_key value in the SSL context that the server uses for new connections. For notes about the relationship between this status variable and its corresponding system variable, see the description of Current_tls_ca.

This variable was added in MySQL 8.0.16.

Current_tls_version

The active tls_version value in the SSL context that the server uses for new connections. For notes about the relationship between this status variable and its corresponding system variable, see the description of Current_tls_ca.

This variable was added in MySQL 8.0.16.

Delayed_errors

This status variable is deprecated (because DELAYED inserts are not supported), and will be removed in a future release.

Delayed_insert_threads

This status variable is deprecated (because DELAYED inserts are not supported), and will be removed in a future release.

Delayed_writes

This status variable is deprecated (because DELAYED inserts are not supported), and will be removed in a future release.

dragnet.Status

The result of the most recent assignment to the dragnet.log_error_filter_rules system variable, empty if no such assignment has occurred.

This variable was added in MySQL 8.0.12.

Flush_commands

The number of times the server flushes tables, whether because a user executed a FLUSH TABLES statement or due to internal server operation. It is also incremented by receipt of a COM_REFRESH packet. This is in contrast to Com_flush, which indicates how many FLUSH statements have been executed, whether FLUSH TABLES, FLUSH LOGS, and so forth.

group_replication_primary_member

Shows the primary member's UUID when the group is operating in single-primary mode. If the group is operating in multi-primary mode, shows an empty string.

The group_replication_primary_member status variable has been deprecated and is scheduled to be removed in a future version.

Handler_commit

The number of internal COMMIT statements.

Handler_delete

The number of times that rows have been deleted from tables.

Handler_external_lock

The server increments this variable for each call to its external_lock() function, which generally occurs at the beginning and end of access to a table instance. There might be differences among storage engines. This variable can be used, for example, to discover for a statement that accesses a partitioned table how many partitions were pruned before locking occurred: Check how much the counter increased for the statement, subtract 2 (2 calls for the table itself), then divide by 2 to get the number of partitions locked.

Handler_mrr_init

The number of times the server uses a storage engine's own Multi-Range Read implementation for table access.

Handler_prepare

A counter for the prepare phase of two-phase commit operations.

Handler_read_first

The number of times the first entry in an index was read. If this value is high, it suggests that the server is doing a lot of full index scans (for example, SELECT col1 FROM foo, assuming that col1 is indexed).

Handler_read_key

The number of requests to read a row based on a key. If this value is high, it is a good indication that your tables are properly indexed for your queries.

Handler_read_last

The number of requests to read the last key in an index. With ORDER BY, the server will issue a first-key request followed by several next-key requests, whereas with ORDER BY DESC, the server will issue a last-key request followed by several previous-key requests.

Handler_read_next

The number of requests to read the next row in key order. This value is incremented if you are querying an index column with a range constraint or if you are doing an index scan.

Handler_read_prev

The number of requests to read the previous row in key order. This read method is mainly used to optimize ORDER BY ... DESC.

Handler_read_rnd

The number of requests to read a row based on a fixed position. This value is high if you are doing a lot of queries that require sorting of the result. You probably have a lot of queries that require MySQL to scan entire tables or you have joins that do not use keys properly.

Handler_read_rnd_next

The number of requests to read the next row in the data file. This value is high if you are doing a lot of table scans. Generally this suggests that your tables are not properly indexed or that your queries are not written to take advantage of the indexes you have.

Handler_rollback

The number of requests for a storage engine to perform a rollback operation.

Handler_savepoint

The number of requests for a storage engine to place a savepoint.

Handler_savepoint_rollback

The number of requests for a storage engine to roll back to a savepoint.

Handler_update

The number of requests to update a row in a table.

Handler_write

The number of requests to insert a row in a table.

Innodb_available_undo_logs

Innodb_available_undo_logs was removed in MySQL 8.0.2. The number of available rollback segments per tablespace may be retrieved using SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'innodb_rollback_segments';

Innodb_buffer_pool_dump_status

The progress of an operation to record the pages held in the InnoDB buffer pool, triggered by the setting of innodb_buffer_pool_dump_at_shutdown or innodb_buffer_pool_dump_now.

For related information and examples, see Section 15.8.3.7, “Saving and Restoring the Buffer Pool State”.

Innodb_buffer_pool_load_status

The progress of an operation to warm up the InnoDB buffer pool by reading in a set of pages corresponding to an earlier point in time, triggered by the setting of innodb_buffer_pool_load_at_startup or innodb_buffer_pool_load_now. If the operation introduces too much overhead, you can cancel it by setting innodb_buffer_pool_load_abort.

For related information and examples, see Section 15.8.3.7, “Saving and Restoring the Buffer Pool State”.

Innodb_buffer_pool_bytes_data

The total number of bytes in the InnoDB buffer pool containing data. The number includes both dirty and clean pages. For more accurate memory usage calculations than with Innodb_buffer_pool_pages_data, when compressed tables cause the buffer pool to hold pages of different sizes.

Innodb_buffer_pool_pages_data

The number of pages in the InnoDB buffer pool containing data. The number includes both dirty and clean pages. When using compressed tables, the reported Innodb_buffer_pool_pages_data value may be larger than Innodb_buffer_pool_pages_total (Bug #59550).

Innodb_buffer_pool_bytes_dirty

The total current number of bytes held in dirty pages in the InnoDB buffer pool. For more accurate memory usage calculations than with Innodb_buffer_pool_pages_dirty, when compressed tables cause the buffer pool to hold pages of different sizes.

Innodb_buffer_pool_pages_dirty

The current number of dirty pages in the InnoDB buffer pool.

Innodb_buffer_pool_pages_flushed

The number of requests to flush pages from the InnoDB buffer pool.

Innodb_buffer_pool_pages_free

The number of free pages in the InnoDB buffer pool.

Innodb_buffer_pool_pages_latched

The number of latched pages in the InnoDB buffer pool. These are pages currently being read or written, or that cannot be flushed or removed for some other reason. Calculation of this variable is expensive, so it is available only when the UNIV_DEBUG system is defined at server build time.

Innodb_buffer_pool_pages_misc

The number of pages in the InnoDB buffer pool that are busy because they have been allocated for administrative overhead, such as row locks or the adaptive hash index. This value can also be calculated as Innodb_buffer_pool_pages_total − Innodb_buffer_pool_pages_free − Innodb_buffer_pool_pages_data. When using compressed tables, Innodb_buffer_pool_pages_misc may report an out-of-bounds value (Bug #59550).

Innodb_buffer_pool_pages_total

The total size of the InnoDB buffer pool, in pages. When using compressed tables, the reported Innodb_buffer_pool_pages_data value may be larger than Innodb_buffer_pool_pages_total (Bug #59550)

Innodb_buffer_pool_read_ahead

The number of pages read into the InnoDB buffer pool by the read-ahead background thread.

The number of pages read into the InnoDB buffer pool by the read-ahead background thread that were subsequently evicted without having been accessed by queries.

Innodb_buffer_pool_read_ahead_rnd

The number of “random” read-aheads initiated by InnoDB. This happens when a query scans a large portion of a table but in random order.

Innodb_buffer_pool_read_requests

The number of logical read requests.

Innodb_buffer_pool_reads

The number of logical reads that InnoDB could not satisfy from the buffer pool, and had to read directly from disk.

Innodb_buffer_pool_resize_status

The status of an operation to resize the InnoDB buffer pool dynamically, triggered by setting the innodb_buffer_pool_size parameter dynamically. The innodb_buffer_pool_size parameter is dynamic, which allows you to resize the buffer pool without restarting the server. See Configuring InnoDB Buffer Pool Size Online for related information.

Innodb_buffer_pool_wait_free

Normally, writes to the InnoDB buffer pool happen in the background. When InnoDB needs to read or create a page and no clean pages are available, InnoDB flushes some dirty pages first and waits for that operation to finish. This counter counts instances of these waits. If innodb_buffer_pool_size has been set properly, this value should be small.

Innodb_buffer_pool_write_requests

The number of writes done to the InnoDB buffer pool.

Key_blocks_not_flushed

The number of key blocks in the MyISAM key cache that have changed but have not yet been flushed to disk.

Key_blocks_unused

The number of unused blocks in the MyISAM key cache. You can use this value to determine how much of the key cache is in use; see the discussion of key_buffer_size in Section 5.1.8, “Server System Variables”.

Key_blocks_used

The number of used blocks in the MyISAM key cache. This value is a high-water mark that indicates the maximum number of blocks that have ever been in use at one time.

Key_read_requests

The number of requests to read a key block from the MyISAM key cache.

Key_reads

The number of physical reads of a key block from disk into the MyISAM key cache. If Key_reads is large, then your key_buffer_size value is probably too small. The cache miss rate can be calculated as Key_reads/Key_read_requests.

Key_write_requests

The number of requests to write a key block to the MyISAM key cache.

Key_writes

The number of physical writes of a key block from the MyISAM key cache to disk.

Last_query_cost

The total cost of the last compiled query as computed by the query optimizer. This is useful for comparing the cost of different query plans for the same query. The default value of 0 means that no query has been compiled yet. The default value is 0. Last_query_cost has session scope.

In MySQL 8.0.16 and later, this variable shows the cost of queries that have multiple query blocks, summing the cost estimates of each query block, estimating how many times non-cacheable subqueries are executed, and multiplying the cost of those query blocks by the number of subquery executions. (Bug #92766, Bug #28786951) Prior to MySQL 8.0.16, Last_query_cost was computed accurately only for simple, “flat” queries, but not for complex queries such as those containing subqueries or UNION. (For the latter, the value was set to 0.)

Last_query_partial_plans

The number of iterations the query optimizer made in execution plan construction for the previous query. Last_query_cost has session scope.

Max_execution_time_exceeded

The number of SELECT statements for which the execution timeout was exceeded.

Max_execution_time_set

Max_execution_time_set_failed

The number of SELECT statements for which the attempt to set an execution timeout failed.

Max_used_connections

The maximum number of connections that have been in use simultaneously since the server started.

Max_used_connections_time

The time at which Max_used_connections reached its current value.

Not_flushed_delayed_rows

mecab_charset

The character set currently used by the MeCab full-text parser plugin. For related information, see Section 12.9.9, “MeCab Full-Text Parser Plugin”.

Ongoing_anonymous_transaction_count

Shows the number of ongoing transactions which have been marked as anonymous. This can be used to ensure that no further transactions are waiting to be processed.

Ongoing_automatic_gtid_violating_transaction_count

This status variable is only available in debug builds. Shows the number of ongoing transactions which use gtid_next=AUTOMATIC and that violate GTID consistency.

Open_files

The number of files that are open. This count includes regular files opened by the server. It does not include other types of files such as sockets or pipes. Also, the count does not include files that storage engines open using their own internal functions rather than asking the server level to do so.

Open_streams

The number of streams that are open (used mainly for logging).

Open_table_definitions

The number of cached table definitions.

Open_tables

The number of tables that are open.

Opened_files
