Innotop, like the Unix “top” command, provides an updating text-only view into shadowy system workings; unlike the Unix “top”, which describes processes and memory usage in the OS, Innotop describes queries and errors in MySQL’s InnoDB storage engine - most useful amongst them, the answer to the question “Which foreign key constraint just failed in that last query?” Entirely aside from Innotop, the site is a treasure trove of handy MySQL tricks and optimizations. Thank goodness for wise people who share.

Even though it's not visible, it can be sorted by. This is defined with a numeric sort, so it'll work as expected. The artificial distinction between 'secs' (a number) and 'time' (h:m:s) is removed in upcoming versions.</p> Hi, try pressing the ’s’ key and selecting ’secs’ as the sort column.

Nice little tool.</p> <p>Small bug report: In Query List mode, it appears to sort the Time column lexically. Fine when all the times are under an hour, but my server has some long-running connections. Funny when "04:26:35" shows up between "04:25" and "05:12"...</p> Congratulations! Nice little tool.

I'm trying to figure out how to have MySQL track the amount of rows in a table so that once a threshold is reached, any new insert will automatically delete the lowest numbered row. Since you are the only MySQL guru that I know, I was hoping that you might have some insight into this problem and would love reading an article on how to solve this problem in the most efficient way possible. </p> <p> Sorry for posting this as a comment in an unrelated thread, but I couldn't find your email address anywhere on the site. </p> <p> Thanks,<br /> -E </p> Hey, I’m a long time reader of your blog and was wondering if you could shed some light on using MySQL for a circular datastore.
