Vince Carbone on MySQL and DTrace: Dynamically tracing better performance
A year ago this past week (on January 16, 2008), Sun Microsystems announced a historic deal to acquire MySQL AB for a billion dollars. Since then, MySQL-ers (aka Sun Dolphins) have settled in with Sun folks. While Sun has had an influence on MySQL, MySQL has also had an influence on several projects within "Sun Classic". Over this week, we hope to explore some of the projects around Sun which use MySQL and how the acquisition has helped bring us all closer together. Today we talk to Vince Carbone in Sun's Performance Technology Group about MySQL with DTrace, the dynamic tracing application that is part of Solaris and OpenSolaris and set to be a hot topic at the 2009 MySQL User Conference.

Tracing a Slow MySQL Query

We have a few slow queries in forums. I am trying to track them down and see if I can fix them somehow. Here is an example from our mysql-slow.log: # Time: 090929 9:04:54 # User@Host: unixdb @ localhost # Query_time: 7 Lock_time: 0 Rows_sent: 10 Rows_examined: 75157 SELECT... (2 Replies)

MYSQLBUG(1)						       MySQL Database System						       MYSQLBUG(1)

NAME

       mysqlbug - generate bug report

SYNOPSIS

       mysqlbug

DESCRIPTION

       This program enables you to generate a bug report and send it to Oracle Corporation. It is a shell script and runs on Unix.

       The normal way to report bugs is to visit http://bugs.mysql.com/, which is the address for our bugs database. This database is public and
       can be browsed and searched by anyone. If you log in to the system, you can enter new reports. If you have no Web access, you can generate
       a bug report by using the mysqlbug script.

       mysqlbug helps you generate a report by determining much of the following information automatically, but if something important is missing,
       please include it with your message.  mysqlbug can be found in the scripts directory (source distribution) and in the bin directory under
       your MySQL installation directory (binary distribution).

       Invoke mysqlbug without arguments:

	   shell> mysqlbug

       The script will place you in an editor with a copy of the report to be sent. Edit the lines near the beginning that indicate the nature of
       the problem. Then write the file to save your changes, quit the editor, and mysqlbug will send the report by email.
