mysqldumpslow - Summarize Slow Query Log Files
The MariaDB slow query log contains information about queries that take a long time to execute (see , "The Slow Query Log"). 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.

and strings to'S'
.--debug
,-d
Run in debug mode.

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
,at
: Sort by query time or average query timel
,al
: Sort by lock time or average lock timer
,ar
: Sort by rows sent or average rows sentc
: Sort by count
By default, mysqldumpslow sorts by average query time (equivalent to
-s at
).-t
