mysql内存分配,MySQL TEXT内存分配

Anybody knows how MySQL allocates disk space for fields like "TEXT" or "BLOB"

For example, what happens when I insert 10kb string into "TEXT" column? Is the entire 65kb data allocated or only 10kb?

解决方案BLOB, TEXT L + 2 bytes, where L < 2^16

MEDIUMBLOB, MEDIUMTEXT L + 3 bytes, where L < 2^24

LONGBLOB, LONGTEXT L + 4 bytes, where L < 2^32

Variable-length string types are stored using a length prefix plus

data. The length prefix requires from one to four bytes depending on

the data type, and the value of the prefix is L (the byte length of

the string). For example, storage for a MEDIUMTEXT value requires L

bytes to store the value plus three bytes to store the length of the

value.

So in short, the whole 65kb is not wasted.
