6 mysqldumpslow - Summarize slow query log files
7
9 mysqldumpslow [options] [log_file ...]
10
12 The MySQL slow query log contains information about queries that take a
13 long time to execute (see Section 5.2.5, “The Slow Query Log”).
14 mysqldumpslow parses MySQL slow query log files and prints a summary of
15 their contents.
16
17 Normally, mysqldumpslow groups queries that are similar except for the
18 particular values of number and string data values. It “abstracts”
19 these values to N and ´S´ when displaying summary output. The -a and -n
20 options can be used to modify value abstracting behavior.
21
22 Invoke mysqldumpslow like this:
23
24 shell> mysqldumpslow [options] [log_file ...]
25
26 mysqldumpslow supports the following options.
27
28 · --help
29
30 Display a help message and exit.
31
32 · -a
33
34 Do not abstract all numbers to N and strings to ´S´.
35
36 · --debug, -d
37
38 Run in debug mode.
39
40 · -g pattern
41
42 Consider only queries that match the (grep-style) pattern.
43
44 · -h host_name
45
46 Host name of MySQL server for *-slow.log file name. The value can
47 contain a wildcard. The default is * (match all).
48
49 · -i name
50
51 Name of server instance (if using mysql.server startup script).
52
53 · -l
54
55 Do not subtract lock time from total time.
56
57 · -n N
58
59 Abstract numbers with at least N digits within names.
60
61 · -r
62
63 Reverse the sort order.
64
65 · -s sort_type
66
67 How to sort the output. The value of sort_type should be chosen
68 from the following list:
69
70 · t, at: Sort by query time or average query time
71
72 · l, al: Sort by lock time or average lock time
73
74 · r, ar: Sort by rows sent or average rows sent
75
76 · c: Sort by count
77 By default, mysqldumpslow sorts by average query time
78 (equivalent to -s at).
79
80 · -t N
81
82 Display only the first N queries in the output.
83
84 · --verbose, -v
85
86 Verbose mode. Print more information about what the program
87 does.

89 Example of usage:
90
91 shell> mysqldumpslow
92 Reading mysql slow query log from /usr/local/mysql/data/mysqld51-apple-slow.log
93 Count: 1 Time=4.32s (4s) Lock=0.00s (0s) Rows=0.0 (0), root[root]@localhost
94 insert into t2 select * from t1
95 Count: 3 Time=2.53s (7s) Lock=0.00s (0s) Rows=0.0 (0), root[root]@localhost
96 insert into t2 select * from t1 limit N
97 Count: 3 Time=2.13s (6s) Lock=0.00s (0s) Rows=0.0 (0), root[root]@localhost
