MySQL InnoDB Compression Details
This dashboard helps you analyze the efficiency of InnoDB compression.
Compression level and failure rate threshold
InnoDB Compression Level : The level of zlib compression to use for InnoDB compressed tables and indexes.
InnoDB Compression Failure Threshold : The compression failure rate threshold for a table.
Compression Failure Rate Threshold : The maximum percentage that can be reserved as free space within each compressed page, allowing room to reorganize the data and modification log within the page when a compressed table or index is updated and the data might be recompressed.
Write Pages to the Redo Log : Specifies whether images of re-compressed pages are written to the redo log. Re-compression may occur when changes are made to compressed data.
Statistic of compression operations
Compress Attempts : Number of compression operations attempted. Pages are compressed whenever an empty page is created or the space for the uncompressed modification log runs out.
Uncompressed Attempts : Number of uncompression operations performed. Compressed InnoDB pages are uncompressed whenever compression fails, or the first time a compressed page is accessed in the buffer pool and the uncompressed page does not exist.
CPU Core Usage
CPU Core Usage for Compression : Shows the time in seconds spent by InnoDB Compression operations.
CPU Core Usage for Uncompression : Shows the time in seconds spent by InnoDB Uncompression operations.
Buffer Pool Total
Total Used Pages : Shows the total amount of used compressed pages into the InnoDB Buffer Pool split by page size.
Total Free Pages : Shows the total amount of free compressed pages into the InnoDB Buffer Pool split by page size.
