MARIADB-DUMPSLOW(1)      MariaDB Database System     MARIADB-DUMPSLOW(1)

NAME         top

       mariadb-dumpslow - Summarize slow query log files (mysqldumpslow
       is now a symlink to mariadb-dumpslow)

SYNOPSIS         top


       mysqldumpslow [options] [log_file ...]

DESCRIPTION         top

       The MariaDB slow query log contains information about queries
       that take a long time to execute.  mysqldumpslow parses MariaDB
       slow query log files and prints a summary of their contents.

       Normally, mysqldumpslow groups queries that are similar except
       for the particular values of number and string data values. It
       “abstracts” these values to N and ´S´ when displaying summary
       output. The -a and -n options can be used to modify value
       abstracting behavior.

       Invoke mysqldumpslow like this:

           shell> mysqldumpslow [options] [log_file ...]

       mysqldumpslow supports the following options.

       •   --help

           Display a help message and exit.

       •   -a

           Do not abstract all numbers to N and strings to ´S´.

       •   --debug, -d

           Run in debug mode.

       •   -g pattern

           Consider only queries that match the (grep-style) pattern.

       •   -h host_name

           Host name of MariaDB server for *-slow.log file name. The
           value can contain a wildcard. The default is * (match all).

       •   -i name

           Name of server instance (if using mysql.server startup
           script).

       •   -l

           Do not subtract lock time from total time.

       •   -n N

           Abstract numbers with at least N digits within names.

       •   -r

           Reverse the sort order.

       •   -s sort_type

           How to sort the output. The value of sort_type should be
           chosen from the following list:

           •   t, aa: Sort by rows affected or average rows affected

           •   l, ae: Sort by rows examined or aggregate rows examined

           •   l, at: Sort by query time or average query time

           •   l, al: Sort by lock time or average lock time

           •   s, as: Sort by rows sent or average rows sent

           •   c: Sort by count

       •   -t N

           Display only the first N queries in the output.

       •   --verbose, -v

           Verbose mode. Print more information about what the program
           does.

       Example of usage:

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