As if it’s not insane enough to carry around an upright piano on your back, this guy has to really show off, playing a brief concert with the thing strapped to him. More musical mayhem here.

If you’ve upgraded from MySQL 5.1 to a newer version (5.5?  5.6? 5.7?)  Mark Leith shows you why you should turn on performance_schema. Roland Bouman gave us Common_Schema to help improve the SQL user experience.   Mark now lets us look inward at the IO latency to improve the system.
Mark has developed a great set of views and procedures to work with performance_schema that can give you things like:
A list all statements who’s average runtime, in microseconds, are the top 5% slowest
statements that use have done a full table scans
Find indexes that have had no events against them (and hence, no usage)
Show the top disk IO consumers by bytes usage by file
You’ll need to start mysql with the command line –performance_schema option or add performance_schema=on to your my.cnf and restart the server.  Then download the lattest 5.5 or 5.6 code from Mark’s page and import it.
 mysql < ps_helper_56.sql
Now you’re ready to learn things like:
mysql> SELECT * FROM statements_with_errors_or_warnings;
