Jak odhadnout načasování SQL dotazu?

To lze provést pomocí ZOBRAZIT PROFILY syntaxe. Když otevřete relaci MySQL, můžete nastavit proměnnou "profiling" na 1 nebo ON.

mysql> SET profiling = 1;

Takže všechny příkazy odeslané na server budou profilovány a uloženy v historii a později zobrazeny zadáním příkazu:

mysql> SHOW PROFILES;

Viz manuál MySQL:

mysql> SET profiling = 1;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)

mysql> DROP TABLE IF EXISTS t1;
Query OK, 0 rows affected, 1 warning (0.00 sec)

mysql> CREATE TABLE T1 (id INT);
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.01 sec)

mysql> SHOW PROFILES;
+----------+----------+--------------------------+

|        1 | 0.000136 | DROP TABLE IF EXISTS t1  |
|        2 | 0.011947 | CREATE TABLE t1 (id INT) |
