The MariaDB slow query log contains information about queries
that take a long time to execute. 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 ...]
