Defining Performance
• Simple word but many meanings
• Main objective:
– Users (direct or indirect) should be satisfied
• Most typical performance metrics
– Throughput
– Latency / Response time
– Scalability
– Combined metrics
Starvation
transactions/time
5

Queuing Theory
• Multi User applications
• Request waits in queue before being processed
• User response time = queuing delay + service time
– Non high tech example – support call center.
• “Hockey Stick” - queuing delay grows rapidly when system getting close to
saturation
• Need to improve queuing delay or service time
to improve performance
• Improving service time reduces queuing delay
Connections
ResponseTime
6

Service Time: Key to the hotspot
• Main Question – where does service time comes from ?
– network, cpu, disk, locks...
• Direct Measurements
– Sum up all query times from web pages
• Indirect measurements
– CPU usage
– Disk IO latency
– Network traffic
– Load Average
– Number of running queries
– etc.
7

Benchmark Tests
• Great tool to:
– Quantify application performance
– Measure performance effect of the changes
– Validate Scalability
– Plan deployment
• But
– Can be very misleading if done wrong
– Need to be able to read results correctly
• Typical Errors
– Testing with 1GB size with 100GB in production
– Using uniform distribution
• “Harry Potter” ordered as frequent as Zulu dictionary
– Testing in single user scenario
8

Business side of optimization
• Performance costs money, whatever road you take
• Investigate different possibilities
– Better hardware could be cheaper than a major rewrite
• How much performance/scalability/reliability do you need ?
– 99.999% could be a lot more expensive than 99.9%
– Is peak traffic requirements 100x average or just 3x ?
• Take a look at whole picture
– Is this the largest risk/bottleneck ?
• Identify which optimizations are critical for business
– Optimization of “everything” is often waste of resources
– What is the cost of suboptimal performance ?

12

Basic1: Checking Server Configurations
• The MySQL server is controlled by “System Variables”
• Set via:
– Option File: my.cnf / my.ini
– Temporary change: SET [GLOBAL] <vriable>=<value>
• Can be per connection (LOCAL) or server wide (GLOBAL)
13

Basic2: Checking Status of Server
• Monitor system performance using “Status Variables”
• Knowing internal commands of one query
Mysql> FLUSH STATUS; <run query>; SHOW STATUS;
• Checking status periodically
shell> mysqladmin -u -p ... ex -i 15 -r | grep -v ‘ 0 ‘

Monitoring Queries - Slow Query Log
#Time: 08073101 16:25:24
#User@Host: root[root] @ localhost [127.0.0.1]
#Query_time: 8 Lock_time: 0 Rows_sent: 20 Rows_examined: 243661
SELECT part_num FROM `inventory`.`parts` WHERE
(`ven` = "foo") ORDER BY `delivery_datetime` DESC LIMIT 100;
Pros
• Logs queries that took longer than X (user defined)
• Logs queries that do not use indexes (5.0 and higher)
• Includes data needed to trace offending queries
Cons
• Growth must be managed using FLUSH LOGS
• Entries must be parsed/sorted for relevance
• mysqldumpslow helps, but still tedious, takes time
15

Pros
• Shows current processes
• Shows status of executing queries
• Includes data needed to trace offending
queries
16
Con
Scripting needed to:
• automate,
• integrate with Slow Query Log,
• Aggregate/parse results for analysis,
• notify DBA of problem
Monitoring Queries – SHOW PROCESSLIST;
mysql> SHOW FULL PROCESSLISTG
******** 1. row *****************
Id: 1
User: MyUser
Host: localhost
db: inventory
Command: Query
Time: 1030455
State: Sending Data
Info: SELECT part_num from ‘inv’;
…..
2 rows in set (0.00 sec)

Analyze
• How indexes are being used (or not…)
• required filesorts
• What tables, columns are being queried
17
Fix/Tune - involves iterations of:
• Add/alter indexes
• Alter tables, columns, datatypes
• Alter query structure
• Test, 10 GOTO 10 until done
Fixing Problem Queries – EXPLAIN;
EXPLAIN SELECT part_num
FROM `inventory`.`parts`
WHERE (`ven` = "foo")
ORDER BY `delivery_datetime`
DESC LIMIT 100;G
******** 1. row *************
ID: 1
select_type: SIMPLE
table: parts
type: ref
possible_keys: ven, part#
key: ven
key_len: 3

Extra: Using WHERE
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

MySQL 5.7: Optimizer - Cost Info in JSON EXPLAIN

MySQL 5.7: SYS Schema
Helper objects for DBAs, Developers and Operations staff
• Helps simplify DBA / Ops tasks
- Monitor server health, user, host statistics
- Spot, diagnose, and tune performance issues
• Easy to understand views with insights into
- IO hot spots, Locking, Costly SQL statements
- Schema, table and index statistics
• SYS is similar to
- Oracle V$ catalog views
- Microsoft SQL DMVs (Dynamic Mgmnt Views)

“With the MySQL Query Analyzer, we were able to identify
and analyze problematic SQL code, and triple our database
performance. More importantly, we were able to
accomplish this in three days, rather than taking weeks.”
Keith Souhrada
Software Development Engineer
Big Fish Games
Enterprise Query Analyzer
22
• Real-time query performance
• Visual correlation graphs
• Find & fix expensive queries
• Detailed query statistics
• Query Response Time index (QRTi)
– “Quality of Service” (QoS) measurement
for each query
– QoS measurement for a server, group, or
every instance
– Single metric for query performance

MySQL Enterprise Scalability : Thread Pool
23
Performance
Security
Availability
• Provides 20x better scalability
• Plugin improves sustained performance as connections grow
• Each connection assigned to
thread group via round robin
• Threads are prioritized and
statements queued
• Protection from DOS attacks

24

Server Connections & Threads
• max_connections (151)
– number of connections server will allow. May
run out of memory if too high, because of per
connections memory usage
• thread_cache_size (8)
– Keep up to this amount of threads “cached”
after disconnect
– Typical setting
max_connections/3
25
Client2 ClientN
Connection Thread Pool
Client1
mysql> show status;
• Max_used_connections
– check if it matches max_connections,
too low value or sign of overload
• Threads_created
– thread_cache misses
– should be low.

Connection Thread Work Buffers
• sort_buffer_size (2M)
– Memory to allocate for sort. Will use disk based
sort for larger data sets. Often fine at 512K or
1M
• other buffers, read, read_rnd,
etc… smaller defaults often OK
• You can change dynamically if large sort
operation is needed in batch operation etc
26
Client2 ClientN
Client1
mysql> show status;
• Sort_merge_passes
– number of passes made during file
merge sort.
– check if file sort needs to be done
at all
– use index if possible

Server Query Cache
• query_cache_size (0)
– Amount of memory to use for query cache
– Typically 32M is fine, some databases need 128M
• query_cache_type (ON)
– Worst case performance overhead is about 15%-20%
– Favors servers with higher SELECT/WRITE ratios
• Best Practice
– Set to DEMAND
– Add SQL_CACHE to appropriate queries
27
Parser Query 101101
Query Cache
mysql> show status;
• Qcache_hits, Qcache_inserts
• hits/inserts cache hit ratio, if small,
maybe disable query cache
• Qcache_lowmem_prunes
• times older queries were removed
due to low memory, need to increase
query_cache_size if high

InnoDB Performance Tips
• innodb_buffer_pool_size
– 80% of memory on Innodb only system
– caches data & indexes unlike MyISAM
• innodb_log_file_size
– A key parameter for write performance
– Recovery time is no more an issue.
– Bigger is better for write QPS stability
• innodb_flush_log_at_trx_commit
– 1 (slow) will flush (fsync) log at each commit. Truly ACID
– 2 (fast) will only flush log buffer to OS cache on commit,
sync to disk once/sec.
– 0 (fastest) will flush (fsync) log every second or so
• innodb_file_per_table
– Always good choice to distribute i/o
– Default ON from 5.6
Storage Engines
 InnoDB
 MyISAM
 MERGE
 MEMORY
ARCHIVE
mysql> SHOW ENGINE
INNODB STATUS;
Great way to see what is going
on inside InnoDB, hard to
parse
• File IO
• Buffer Pool
• Log activity
• Row activity
28

InnoDB Performance Tips (Cont.)
• innodb_flush_method = O_DIRECT
– Not to consume OS cache
• innodb_buffer_pool_instances (5.5+)
– To avoid mutex contention
– 2 or more in can
• innodb_io_capacity (5.5+)
– Enlarge if you have fast disks
– Default 200 is good for 2 disks striped
• innodb_read_io_threads (5.5+)
• innodb_write_io_threads (5.5+)
– Enlarge if you have fast disks
– Default 4 is usually good enough
