mysql queries_Profiling MySQL queries from Performance Schema

转自:http://www.percona.com/blog/2015/04/16/profiling-mysql-queries-from-performance-schema/

When optimizing queries and investigating performance issues, MySQL comes with built in support for profiling queries aka SET profiling=1; . This is already awesome and simple to use, but why the PERFORMANCE_SCHEMA alternative?

Because profiling will be removed soon (already deprecated on MySQL 5.6 ad 5.7); the built-in profiling capability can only be enabled per session. This means that you cannot capture profiling information for queries running from other connections. If you are using Percona Server, the profiling option for log_slow_verbosity is a nice alternative, unfortunately, not everyone is using Percona Server.

Now, for a quick demo: I execute a simple query and profile it below. Note that all of these commands are executed from a single session to my test instance.

To demonstrate how we can achieve the same with Performance Schema, we first identify our current connection id. In the real world, you might want to get the connection/processlist id of the thread you want to watch i.e. from SHOW PROCESSLIST .

mysql> SELECT THREAD_ID INTO @my_thread_id

-> FROM threads WHERE PROCESSLIST_ID =CONNECTION_ID();

Query OK,1 row affected (0.00 sec)

Next, we identify the bounding EVENT_IDs for the statement stages. We will look for the statement we wanted to profile using the query below from the events_statements_history_long table. Your LIMIT clause may vary depending on how much queries the server might be getting.

mysql> SELECTTHREAD_ID, EVENT_ID, END_EVENT_ID, SQL_TEXT, NESTING_EVENT_ID-> FROMevents_statements_history_long-> WHERE THREAD_ID = @my_thread_id

-> AND EVENT_NAME = 'statement/sql/select'

-> ORDER BY EVENT_ID DESC LIMIT 3G*************************** 1. row ***************************THREAD_ID:13848EVENT_ID:419END_EVENT_ID:434SQL_TEXT:SELECT THREAD_ID INTO @my_thread_id

FROM threads WHERE PROCESSLIST_ID =CONNECTION_ID()

NESTING_EVENT_ID:NULL

*************************** 2. row ***************************THREAD_ID:13848EVENT_ID:374END_EVENT_ID:392SQL_TEXT:SELECT * FROM sysbench.sbtest1 LIMIT 1NESTING_EVENT_ID:NULL

*************************** 3. row ***************************THREAD_ID:13848EVENT_ID:353END_EVENT_ID:364SQL_TEXT:select @@version_comment limit 1NESTING_EVENT_ID:NULL

3 rows in set (0.02 sec)

From the results above, we are mostly interested with the EVENT_ID and END_EVENT_ID values from the second row, this will give us the stage events of this particular query from the events_stages_history_long table.

mysql> SELECT EVENT_NAME, SOURCE, (TIMER_END-TIMER_START)/1000000000 as 'DURATION (ms)'

-> FROMevents_stages_history_long-> WHERE THREAD_ID = @my_thread_id AND EVENT_ID BETWEEN 374 AND 392;+--------------------------------+----------------------+---------------+

As you can see the results are pretty close, not exactly the same but close. SHOW PROFILE shows Duration in seconds, while the results above is in milliseconds.

Some limitations to this method though:

As we’ve seen it takes a few hoops to dish out the information we need. Because we have to identify the statement we have to profile manually, this procedure may not be easy to port into tools like the sys schema or pstop.

Only possible if Performance Schema is enabled (by default its enabled since MySQL 5.6.6, yay!)

Does not cover all metrics compared to the native profiling i.e. CONTEXT SWITCHES, BLOCK IO, SWAPS

Depending on how busy the server you are running the tests, the sizes of the history tables may be too small, as such you either have to increase or loose the history to early i.e. performance_schema_events_stages_history_long_size variable. Using ps_history might help in this case though with a little modification to the queries.

The resulting Duration per event may vary, I would think this may be due to the additional as described on performance_timers table. In any case we hope to get this cleared up as result when this bug is fixed.
