mysql 获取表大小,如何获取MySQL数据库表的大小？

I can run this query to get the sizes of all tables in a MySQL database:

show table status from myDatabaseName;

I would like some help in understanding the results. I am looking for tables with the largest sizes.

Which column should I look at?

You can use this query to show the size of a table (although you need to substitute the variables first):

SELECT

table_name AS `Table`,

round(((data_length + index_length) / 1024 / 1024), 2) `Size in MB`

FROM information_schema.TABLES

WHERE table_schema = "$DB_NAME"

AND table_name = "$TABLE_NAME";

or this query to list the size of every table in every database, largest first:

SELECT

table_schema as `Database`,

table_name AS `Table`,

round(((data_length + index_length) / 1024 / 1024), 2) `Size in MB`

FROM information_schema.TABLES

ORDER BY (data_length + index_length) DESC;
