Measure Size Of Multiple Insert In Bytes


How can I measure the size of a mutiple insert statement in bytes?

Ex: insert into table1 (field1,field2) values ('a',111),('b',222),('c',333);

Is there a tool or a sql-command that could give me the size in bytes of the queries I'm sending to the server?

Database Total Size In Bytes
I am using PHP/MySQL and I am wondering what type of query would I have to do to get the total size of the database in bytes... So this would include all the content. The reason is because I am trying to limit users to uploading files if they are over their max allowance.so I need to run a check.

Insert Multiple Rows With One Insert Stmt And Nested Select
I'm trying to insert several rows into a table using only one insert statement:

insert into component_feature values (select 3,1,sf.software_feature_id,1 from software_feature sf where sf.software_id = 1)

When I run the select statement alone, I get the result I want:

+---+---+---------------------+---+
| 3 | 1 | software_feature_id | 1 |
+---+---+---------------------+---+
| 3 | 1 | 0 | 1 |
| 3 | 1 | 1 | 1 |
| 3 | 1 | 2 | 1 |
+---+---+---------------------+---+

But when I run the complete statement I get:

ERROR 1064 (42000): You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that
corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'select 3,1,sf.software_feature_id,1 from software_feature sf where sf.software_i' at line 1

This query is part of a PHP application I'm building. I'd rather not have to write a PHP loop to do multiple inserts.

Measure/Analyze Query
I am sampling on this query:

SELECT * FROM tableA A INNER JOIN tableB B
on A.docnum like concat('%',partnum,'%')

I need to find out exactly how fast this one line of query is and try to improve the speed little by little. Well, even a few seconds of speed would help since I have about 20 columns.Is there a way in MySQL to check the duration of a query?Also, I was wondering if there is a function to return some stats on each section of a query (dissecting) and how long it takes to run each section of that query.I want to know where it lags and where/what it does to I can better understand what happens when it is running.

Select / Insert Multiple Rows As A Single Row Of Multiple Columns
I have a nice database set up that contains information about orders and the items on those orders. If an order has 10 items on it, I can select the item data which returns 10 rows of data (let's say 5 colums each). Beautiful!

Now I find myself needing to satisfy a program that requires all of the data on a single row. I can do this in a higher level language, but if I could accomplish it all in mysql it would be better.

I don't need to sum or do any calculations. I just want to select those 5 columns of data about those 10 rows worth of items as a single row with 50 columns.

For example, I'd want this:
1-1,1-2,1-3,1-4,1-5
2-1,2-2,2-3,2-4,2-5

To become:
1-1,1-2,1-3,1-4,1-5,2-1,2-2,2-3,2-4,2-5

The first complication is that the number of items on an order is variable, but is always at least 1 and can not exceed 20. The closest I've been able to get is to do something like:

SELECT GROUP_CONCAT(item_number,",",qty,","",description,"",",price,",",location_number SEPARATOR ",") FROM items WHERE order_number=12345

This will give me a single text string containing the value content of the INSERT query (which will need to be manipuated outside of the SQL query to pad it with NULL values for the unused items' columns etc).

Measure Execution Time Of Mysql Script
I am trying to measure the total execution time of a mysql script that I run using the mysql command line client in batch mode (-e "source myscript"). The --tee option does not work for the batch mode so that I could then gather and add up the execution times of the SQL queries as logged by the server.

Adding a tee command in the script itself is not working. Using the time command (in Linux , and timex is not available) on the mysql program is also not helpful as I think it does not include the execution time of the queries on the mysql server side, but only the system and user times corresponding to the client process.

Datetime 8 Bytes
How MySQL operates sometimes makes me question it. I noticed, that the datetime in MySQL is 8 bytes. But, the date datatype is 3 bytes, the time datatype is 3 bytes, and the year datatype is 1 byte...that adds upto 7 bytes, and we get exactly that in the datetime in 8 bytes.
Why? And would this every change in future release versions?

MD5 Digest Length 16 Bytes Or Not?
I am using mysql.

As defined by RSA DSI in RFC 1321

http://www.cis.ohio-state.edu/cgi-bin/rfc/rfc1321.html

..'The algorithm takes as input a message of arbitrary length and produces as output a 128-bit "fingerprint" or "message digest" of the input.'

Why is it then that when I use a statement like:

USE testdb;

INSERT INTO people (name, pass) VALUES('joe', MD5('yojoenotyoyo'));

being the field 'pass' defined as VARCHAR(32), the whole field is filled, even though last time I checked 128 bits are 16 bytes?

MySQL Bytes Per Record
I am trying to do some calculations as the amount of hard drive space I am going to need. Basically I am looking to create a 318,934 x 8 array. The IEEE Standard 754 is common to C compilers (so I read). The numbers are real numbers small enough to use the single data type which occupies 4 bytes. MySQL uses 4 bytes as well to store floating point data. So does this mean MySQL will take 4 bytes for the floating point multiplied by 4 bytes for MySQL storage location?

Also do any of these standards change when moving to 64-bits?

IEEE STANDARD 754
single type = 4 bytes
double type = 8 bytes
extended type = 10 bytes
IEEE Standard

Column Type | Storage Required
FLOAT(p) | 4 bytes if 0 <= p <= 24, 8 bytes if 25 <= p <= 53
FLOAT | 4 bytes
DOUBLE [PRECISION], item REAL | 8 bytes
DECIMAL(M,D), NUMERIC(M,D) | M+2 bytes if D > 0, M+1 bytes if D = 0 (D+2, if M < D)
11.5. Column Type Storage Requirements.

LAST_INSERT_ID With Multiple INSERT Statement
i have the following question:

When inserting many entries into a table with 1 auto_increment key-attibute
(say attribute user_id) and one data attribute (say attribute name)

CREATE users(user_id int key auto_increment, name text)

like

INSERT INTO users(name) VALUES ('pete'),('josh'),('carl')

When the inserting is done in a concurrent way (say 5 scripts do inserting operations like the one above) how do I get the autoincremented ids for all the inserted rows ? I know that LAST_INSERT_ID() yields the autoinc id of the first inserted row (of the multi-insert statement) say 1002 for 'pete' in this case and is also concurrent-safe. But is the insert statement atomic that i can assume that the subsequent generated ids for 'josh' and 'carl' are consecutive i.e. 'josh' gets 1003 and 'carl' gets 1004 when many scripts insert into this table ?

I dont want to use a subsequent SELECT statement to fetch the auto_incremented ids.

Multiple Selects Within An Insert Statement
I am trying to write a statement that will take information from one table, and insert two similar, but subtly different, lines to another table.

I have tried mutiple Selects within the statement but it didn't like this. Is there a way to achieve what I am after, or will I have to run it as two separate statements? The query I have been trying is:

INSERT INTO table2 (col1,col2,col3,col4,col5,col6,col7,col8)
SELECT (

SELECT ‘1’, now(), table1.customer, now(), ‘1’, ‘1’, ‘2’, table3.user
FROM table1
JOIN table3 (table1.id=table3.id)

(SELECT '6', now(), table1.customer ,null, null, '7','8', table3.user
FROM table1
JOIN table3 (table1.id=table3.id)

);

so the final table should look like:

1, time, customername, time, 1, 1, 2, user
6, time, customername, null, null, 7, 8, user

Mysqldump, Entire Table In One Insert, But Multiple Lines
I'm aware of the recent mysqldump change, in that it now by default
enables some optimizations.
One of those optimizations is to use single insert statements, instead
of separate insert statements, each on their own lines.
I'm also aware of the --skip-opt / -e / --skip-extended-insert

But what I'd like is a combination of having a single insert statement,
but with each record in its own line, like so:

INSERT INTO `article` (`id`, `title`, `text`) VALUES
(1, 'test', 'this is a test'),
(2, 'test2', 'also a test');

--skip-opt or --skip-extended-insert isn't it, because that'll give me:

INSERT INTO `article` (`id`, `title`, `text`) VALUES (1, 'test', 'this
is a test');
INSERT INTO `article` (`id`, `title`, `text`) VALUES (2, 'test2', 'also
a test');

Insert Multiple Fails Completely If Any Duplicates Exist
I've been having some problems with database performance... Several
threads are constantly attempting INSERTs of new records into a large
table - that is hundreds of thousands of records -large by my account
:-) The table has a VARCHAR field tagged as UNIQUE and inserts are
kind of slow. i'm relying on the INSERT to fail on duplicates, i'm
not performing any checking before i attempt the INSERT (i figured an
additional SELECT would slow things even more - but any advice to the
contrary would be appreciated).

While these back end threads are constantly banging away with their
INSERTS, front end users are hitting the DB with searches. so i end
up with several threads simultaneously attempting very expensive DB
operations. the result is that the front end that users see is
DREADFULLY slow.

My proposed speedup is to modify the behavior of the backend threads
so that they don't constantly attempt INSERTS of single entries, but
build up a hashtable of local entries and at some interval, attempt a
multiple insert something like:

INSERT INTO table (col1,col2,col3 VALUES (x1,y1,z1), (x2,y2,z2)....

While i do expect to take a big hit when these multiple inserts
launch, in the time between, i expect front end performance to be
significantly improved.

The problem with this situation is that the multiple insert may
contain one or more new entries which will cause duplicates on my
table's UNIQUE VARCHAR field. I would like to have duplicates ignored
on insert, but have all newly unique entries be added. Sadly, from
what i've seen, once a duplicate violation for any of the new entries
is found, the call fails, leaving my newly UNIQUE entries NOT ADDED.
Is there any way to get the call to work as i want? Doing many single
row inserts sounds like it'll be much slower (judging from what i've
read) so i'd rather not resort to that.

I don't have a ton of DB experience (which may be obvious) so if i've
overlooked something simple please let me know. If there's a better
way to improve performance other than these multiple inserts, that
would be nice to know about too. Thanks for any insight,suggestions,
etc...
